Field Notes
Description:
A chicken-sized bird with brown and white feathers. Note the feathered legs, which are a great fashion statement. This bird claimed the Nature Center as his territory, and would chase and peck at visitors with reckless abandon. He was not at all scared of people. He was eventually hit by a car in the parking lot. Shortly before that he was seen with a female, so hopefully he's got some offspring out there somewhere.
Habitat:
ponderosa pine forest
