SOUTHERN SCREAMER

As its name suggests, this has a very loud call. Apparently it can be heard up to two miles away.

So fluffy! Not familiar with this bird at all, how large are they?

@gardencat Thanks Joanne, they are a bit strange looking. Roughly the size of a turkey, maybe slightly bigger.

@markp Wow! from the picture I wouldn't have guessed they were that big. I think something that size, screaming that loud, would be kind of frightening!
