Avian Sighting- Please help identify this bird!


I need some help identifying this particular species of bird.  I recently caught a glimpse of it at Rainbow Fly Shop in Independence, Missouri.  The owner of the store called it a Nearsighted Bearded Peapheasant but I was wondering if that is just a local/slang term for the beast or if the scientific community recognizes that as an official name.  Also, Mr. Phipps, if you are still reading these posts, I would greatly appreciate it if you could give me the scientific or Latin name for this fine specimen.
