Colorful Bird 182 Views
This pretty colorful bird is possibly in the Turkey family, at least it looks like it is. I have no idea what it is, if anyone can help, it would be appreciated. The image was taken at the Lowry Park Zoo in Tampa, Fl with my Panasonic Lumix DMZ-FZ20 I would suggest the large view on this one.

wow, this is the most gorgeous looking turkey i’ve ever seen in my whole life…it’s even prettier than a peacock in all it’s glory, perhaps it’s of the pheasant variety….glorious!

This looks like the Meleagridinae Ocellata turkey’s that are found in Yucatan, Belize and Guatamala Mexico. Try this website
