Helmeted guineafowl (Numida meleagris) with distinctive black plumage speckled with white dots, a blue face, and a helmet-like casque on the head, walking across sandy ground. Its characteristic bright blue head and red wattles stand out against the muted brown surroundings. Originating from Africa, this bird is often found in open, dry savannas like those in Tarangire National Park, Tanzania. Known for their social behavior, these birds are ground-dwelling and often seen foraging for seeds and insects.
