Volunteer in My Garden-What is it??

I posted this in the Texas forum but then found this forum and thought the experts here may be able to ID this. I had thought it was a pumpkin -it's got big leafs shaped like pumpkin leaves but the fruit is not right. The fruit looks more like a watermelon, and doesn't have the grooves of a pumpkin.

I haven't broken any open to see what color it is inside...a couple are turning yellow (could be getting too old or could be their color!). I put my hand in the picture for size comparison -but it makes the fruit look smaller than it actually is. I'd guess it's about 12" across at it's widest point. I do have a pet bird and I throw out his seed in the compost so lord knows it could be anything!

Any ideas?
