YOU are such a Turkey!

I recently saw two wild turkeys crossing Quaker Ridge Road in New Rochelle, 10804, and they stopped traffic! It was a first for me I must admit, and had to take some photos. Since then, I spoke with a friend in Mamaroneck, and she has a family of nine turkeys in her backyard!

I am also a tad ashamed to mention, it made be think of Thanksgiving.... but I also appreciated seeing them! Just another reason to live in New Rochelle, close enough to the city, but far enough away to enjoy nature!

New Rochelle is GREAT!

Hi Karen - I love to eat quails.. not sure if I would eat them if I saw having fun in my backyard..

Clara - I would hate to be standing under that tree!

Hi Silvia - I know - it was a nice little interlude for my boring day!

Hi Merl - I love seeing the wildlife around here... and I am always still awe struck when I see deers as I am driving.. and also sad to see so many dead by the roadside too..

MOna- I love reading about your pets and animal experiences where you live.. My area is a little built up so whenever I see a deer on the street, etc. it is a fun experience..

Nice turkeys. Don't feel bad they made me think of Thanksgiving as well.

Great pictures Gay, but turkeys have faces only their mothers could love, just saying!?

The first thing I thought of was exactly what @Carla #21 said ... Why did the turkey cross the road? :)

I don't think I've ever seen wild turkeys out for a stroll before. Thanks for sharing the images, Gay.

Gay - I have been seeing several flocks of turkey with their offspring. Cute little baby turkeys, which makes me think of Cornish hens. Just kidding. LOL

Hi Gay, I like to pretend that that which I see free roaming in the open is not the same thing that I see on my plate for the holidays. Otherwise, I would be vegetarian. Great post!

We have hundreds of these guys in our neighborhood in California. They are really interesting as they wander around the yards and streets. Spring is the best time when they have all the babies following mom around. Nothing cuter than that.
