    Finally got around to checking my trail camera tonight and had quite a few pictures...deer, turkey, coyote, even a bobcat, but I'm not sure what this strange "bird-thingy" is? Almost looks like a type of pheasant or peacock. Romano Aug & Sept (33).jpg

    I believe that's a peacock hen. That would definitely inspire a WTF moment, :lol:.

    Yup I'd say peacock aswell. Wait till you call one in at first like turkey hunting, the sounds they make can be rather scary in the dark.

    Definitely a peacock



    I had a similar WTF moment the other day when I was driving to a friend's house here in New Orleans and had to stop because a male peacock was in the middle of the road in full strut :LOL:

    After looking a little closer, pretty sure it is a pea hen.
