Thanks to all who replied to my ID request. Based on all of the responses and matching them to the actions of the bird when I was taking the photos, it all makes sense that this is a domesticated, home grown bird. And I thought I stumbled across some Ohio rarity. Oh well. :> Thanks again.

First time I've seen one of these. From what I've read, this bird is mainly found out west so I'm not sure if I have the correct ID. I spotted this guy on 9/9 at Delaware Wildlife. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
