Bird with brown head

• by Dianas1505

  Looks like a guinea fowl but with a brown head. Do some not have blue heads, or is it another sort of bird?

  These are Coqui Francolins, smaller grouse-like birds pretty common in the area. Especially common under this bush, where I think they might have nested.
