The Vulturine Guineafowl is a striking bird. It lacks feathers on its head and neck and has a blue breast with silvery plumes. The species has a complex social structure. Distinct groups, similar to high school cliques, mingle but don’t change membership. Such a multilevel society was previously only known in large-brained mammals such as primates, dolphins, and elephants. Learn more at BirdNote.org.
