Vulturine guineafowl (Acryllium vulturinum). This bird is native to eastern Africa, where it inhabits scrub and thicket at the edge of forests. It gets its name from its bare head and neck, which resembles that of a vulture. It can grow to over 60 centimetres in length, making it the largest of the guineafowls. It feeds on seeds, shoots, leaves and small invertebrates, which it finds by scratching the ground with its strong legs. It is a social bird moving in groups except when breeding. Photographed in Kenya
