Lesser prairie chicken (Tympanuchus pallidicinctus)
The lesser prairie chicken is a gamebird that occupies the American prairies. It is a sandy colour with brown barred markings. There are yellow wattles of bare skin above the eyes. The red air sacs on the side of the throat are particularly prominent in males, who also have longer neck-plumes. The pale colours provide camouflage in the sandy grasslands of their habitat. |
