Red junglefowl

The Red Junglefowl (Gallus gallus) is a tropical bird. It ranges across much of Southeast Asia and parts of South Asia. It is the species that encompasses the Chicken
Description
The red junglefowl has a mix of feather colours, with orange, brown, red, gold, grey, white, olive and even metallic green plumage. During their mating season, the male birds announce their presence with the well known cock-a-doodle-doo call or crowing. Within flocks, only males crow. Male red junglefowl have a shorter crowing sound than domestic roosters; the call cuts off abruptly at the end. They have distinctive alarm calls for aerial and ground predators to which others react appropriately.
Behaviour
Red junglefowl bathe in dust to keep the right balance of oil in their plumage. The dust absorbs extra oil and subsequently falls off.
Flight in these birds is almost confined to reaching their roosting areas at sunset in trees or any other high and safe places free from ground predators, and for escape from immediate danger through the day.
Diet
Red junglefowl are attracted to areas with ripe fruit or seeds, including fruit plantations, fields of domestic grain, and stands of bamboo. Junglefowl eat fallen fruits and seeds on the ground, they forage in trees by perching on branches and feeding on hanging fruit. Fruits and seeds of scores of plant species have been identified from junglefowl crops, along with leaves, roots, and tubers. Chicks eat mostly Insects and Earthworms.
