Omg. I just saw this huge flock of birds in my backyard. I can't tell what they are. The are bigger than ducks but smaller than turkeys. They are brown, have flaps of skin on their chins, and iridescent wings and tails. They fly. What could these be?

I don't know if this question has been adequately answered yet, but I would doubt that they're guineafowl, because I believe that they're supposed to live only in Africa (hence the name, Guinea is a country in Africa) I from what I know of fowl in my area (The northern midwest) I'd say that what you saw was either a Grouse, or some species of wild turkey, but, seeing as I have not seen them, it is hard for me to say. Grouse are quite a bit smaller than a turkey, but they seem to match your description pretty well. Most turkeys have bald heads, but certain species of wild turkeys would have a bit of plumage on their heads, and female turkeys are smaller and slimmer than the males. I suggest you type in the names of all the birds mentioned into google image search, and see if any of them match your mystery avian. ]
They are called Guinneas or like the word Ginniiee pigs minus the pigs part. Sorry I cant spell but I can spot one of those bad boys. I saw one across the street when I was waiting to get on my school bus back in Highschool and I freaked out and took tons of pictures and one day looking up stuff for my guinnee pigs I clicked on a website about guinneess and their they were. ]
Im going to take a wild guess pheasent (sp?)
I'd suppose you should really google it. ]
it is probably a vulture.
I don't know you really ought to tell your location.
by the way : birds dont have chins.

sandhill crane or maybe a blue heron ]
Where do you live? That would help a lot. It makes a big difference if you're from Australia, Japan, or Canada. Different birds live in different places and you didn't give a good enough description for someone to come up with the correct answer from all the birds that live in the entire world. So please add where you're from to your question and I'll see what I can do. ]
My best guess would be a pheasent but I'm not much of a bird expert. ]
hey umm im not sure. my thing to do would be go to [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) and write birds and search images. then fidn the one that looks like it and then you will know. cait ♥ ]
My guess is it's a pelican. ]
