Male Bush Turkey
Alectura lathami
-28.3257, 153.403
Field Notes
Description:
He's got balls on his neck, he will be chasing the girls soon and building his mound because he will be keeping the eggs warm(in his clever mound!), the female after laying the large egg will want nothing more to do with it! Once they hatch though, they are on their own!
Habitat:
Australia
Notes:
I love the turkey although he also likes to dig around the roots of plants to find nice juicy grubs! Makes such a mess, nevermind...
