A flock of Helmeted Guinea fowl, normally resident in sub-Saharan Africa, on the Hogwood Lane Industrial estate. Hogwood farm raises these birds, presumably for high class restaurants and they occasionally escape. They are not easily scared, especially in the spring, and will raise themselves on their legs face you and squawk very loudly.
