Helmeted guineafowl
Why was the man running around his bed?
He wanted to catch up on his sleep.
Interesting Fact: The helmeted guineafowl (Numida meleagris) is the best known of the guineafowl bird family, Numididae, and the only member of the genus Numida. It is native to Africa, mainly south of the Sahara, and has been widely introduced into the West Indies, Brazil, Australia and Europe (e.g. southern France).

When I was a kid on the farm people used these to protect their laying hens from hawks. Guineafowl will counterattack if the see the hawk come in. They will also encircle snakes, weasels and other pests and kill them.
