Malleefowl (4/18)

GALLIFORMES: Megapodiidae

Leipoa ocellata  

Malleefowl often remain motionless and rely on camouflage to protect them.

In this instance, I spotted the Malleefowl from a distance and remained motionless, and it came wandering by, quite near me.

Look how tiny the head is compared to the rest of the bird.
