WTF?!?

[hellziggy]

Driving in to work today, I turned the corner from one city street onto another headed for the highway, and the traffic was stopped on both sides. I could sort of see flapping wings & my first thought was "f**king Canada Geese. Just run them over." Then I got closer. It wasn't geese.
It was 3 wild turkeys!
I've never seen wild turkeys just hanging out on the road, especially not in the suburbs. It was cool! Unfortunately since I didn't want to be late for work I didn't have time to pull over to take pictures. Dammit! This is why I carry the camera with me at all times and I couldn't even take advantage of it!

Years ago, my family and i were on vacation in the Black Hills. My mom saw a turkey family in the road. She wasn't able to stop or swerve and she ran over the turkey babies trailing behind... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH...the horror!!! Have not seen wild turkeys since then.
