Caught in the Act - The Elusive Green Junglefowl Struts its Stuff!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, witness the magnificent male Green Junglefowl, also known as gallus varius, showcasing its vibrant plumage and untamed spirit. This fearless fowl is a true master of camouflage, often spotted foraging on the grassy edges of airstrips and roads on Indonesian islands like Java, Madura, Bawean, Bali, Kangean, and Lesser Sunda Islands. But don't be fooled by its seemingly carefree demeanor! These wary birds possess lightning-fast reflexes that allow them to disappear into dense roadside vegetation at the slightest hint of danger. If you happen to stop your car unexpectedly near one of these feathered wonders, prepare yourself for a symphony of panic-stricken calls as they take flight! Our featured star was even bold enough to venture beyond its native habitat. Introduced to the Cocos (Keeling) Islands in the Indian Ocean before 1879 – where our talented photographer Don Hadden captured this incredible shot on West Island – this green junglefowl proves that it's not afraid to spread its wings and explore new territories. So let this stunning image transport you into a world where nature reigns supreme and exotic creatures like our dashing male green junglefowl steal the show. Get ready for an adventure filled with wildlife wonders and breathtaking beauty!
