Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Bird of Wow Helmet - LP Zoo

Northern helmeted curassow,
I have a long bird name, I do.
It is my helmet that does wow.
Check me out at Lincoln Park Zoo.
An armor like casque, bluish gray,
Protrudes distinct from my forehead,
Looking like an egg some would say,
But no egg of mine - enough said!
Some scientists do theorize
The casque functions to resonate
The male's low booming call - hey guys,
This lady's looking for a mate!

I'm in the Bird House, check me out.
I'm gonna wow you too, no doubt!
