 Our semi-tame but wild Crested Guinea Fowl "Precious". Her crest is unusually short. One day about 2 years ago she decided to come mooch off me every morning for some food (bread/seeds/cooked Maize) on my way out. Her 20+ family are still quite wary of me but she calls and encourages them. Needless to say she is quite plump in comparison to her flock :)

This is the OOF image for a recent challenge. It bombed, badly.

She looks like an inflated balloon with a fancy (balloon) neck.

Nothing ventured nothing gained ;) A compelling image, just as the blur is.

Plump is putting it mildly :) Interesting looking bird.
