We get a newsletter 3 or 4 times a year from the city. I got one today. I looked it over and was going to chuck it when I noticed a note from the city council on the back. It seems that these turkeys we see are termed 'urban...

We heard something on the roof. What in the world?! Then a little later we were looking out my window and saw 12 turkeys wondering around the Taco Bell parking lot across the street. Yes, it was our visiting turkey gang. The owner...

A few days ago my daughter came in from setting out on the front step to tell us the turkeys were back. A man who lives a few miles up the main street has several of them and they get out from time to time. They travel around the...

I remember one time my dad was in the hospital where we live and I went to visit him.
As I was nearing the hospital I noticed a lot of turkeys roaming around.
As I got closer to them I also noticed many of them sitting on two of...

My neighbors like to throw bread out onto the street by their house.
They don't do it all the time but I see bread on the ground often.
I guess they are doing it to feed birds.
This week I saw a male turkey by their house and...

On the way out yesterday to get errands done, this flock of wild turkeys was beside the road. One minute from our home.
Snapped this photo outside the car window with my iPhone. So cool to see them walking around safely in the...

Turkey farmers in the UK are facing an unusual difficulty this year. This is because measures to combat Covid 19 include a requirement not to allow more than six people to gather indoors at the same time. It is expected that this...

It’s strange what comes to mind in the middle of the night. Things like why do we say we ‘dress’ a turkey? To me, this means killing and plucking it then removing the innards so it’s ready to cook. Surely it should be called...

Yesterday on our way to the movie theater at the mall we had to slow down and even come to a stop in the middle of driving because two turkeys decided to cross the road. And they took their sweet time. No rush. And each one made...

I went to visit my dad in the hospital yesterday and saw a lot of turkeys walking around. I wonder why they are gathered specifically in that location. Why by the hospital? They didn't attack me as I walked or run away from me....

When I work with kids, I use knowledge gained from anywhere I can find it. I've already forgotten more than most of my kid clients know, but I remember some things, including some physics formulas, and how to get male turkeys to...

Poor turkeys! This is really an amazing fact that I came across today from the History channel. I know that a lot of turkeys are consumed on Thanksgiving Day, here in the USA but…

My last post told of a woman I spoke to in the store where I work who told me of her ill and disabled chickens which she keeps in the house.
The one story I need to tell separately is about Ilse, one of her house chickens. Ilse...
