A ball of #crestedPartridge perching for the night at the #GrusonGewächshäuser, where they roam freely in some of the greenhouses. It almost made me jump and scream, when I was standing right next to it and heard some rustling in the greenery. I did NOT expect a chonky demon bird almost at eye level, just centimetres away. 😅

Here's how they look in daylight: https://pixelfed.social/p/meoralis/889604144093266659

I think these #crestedPartridges are dressing up as mad scientists for tomorrow 🎃
