Plumed guineafowl
The plumed guineafowl (Guttera plumifera) is a member of the guineafowl bird family. It is found in humid primary forest in Central Africa. It resembles some subspecies of the crested guineafowl, but has a straighter (not curled) and higher crest, and a relatively long wattle on either side of the bill. The bare skin on the face and neck is entirely dull grey-blue in the western nominate subspecies, while there are a few orange patches among the grey-blue in the eastern subspecies schubotzi.

gollark: These "modules", they could communicate over some sort of unified IPC framework with some standard format or whatever, but probably each language/framework would end up having to implement its own method of rendering what gets sent over.
gollark: They can just send JSON-serialized messages or whatever, it's just slower than using one binary.
gollark: Not really.
gollark: I mean, programs are written in Java, C(++), Rust, Python, whatever else, some of them run in browsers with their own totally different system, and none of them are particularly binary-compatible.
gollark: What, so then you introduce piles of overhead communicating between them?
