LOL, did you see the post I made about "strange wild turkey behavior"? It was a video of a flock of wild turkeys walking in circles around a deceased cat on a road? It would seem turkeys just cant make it across the road!
Now I was guna say to get to the other slide but yup he didnt go.
I had one almost fly into my drivers side window of my truck once, I smashed my hand on my window that as up all the way trying to catch it. Lol, I was only going 40km/h. Haha man did my hand ever hurt, that was before I had turkeys and knew just how powerful those wings really are.

Ok he was just testing the traffic.
The reason my poor turkeys are confined to a pen is because they got waaaay too friendly with a road even though we are in a quiet area. One morning they decided to wander off to a neighbour to display on his front lawn. I realised they had gone and trotted off to get them back. At this point the traffic was stopped on the road opposite his house with everyone watching the turkeys. I was getting close to the pickup in front of the line when the driver decided to roll down his window - bad move. Turkeys thought this must mean he had treats and promptly surrounded his truck. He was crying with laughter by the time I got there and managed to herd the little monsters home!

My Dad had a little partridge fly into the grill of his truck once while driving down the highway, looked like a cannonball went through the front of the truck. He said after, "imagine if I had hit a turkey"!

At least the Turkeys didn't take anyone out like this Eagle. Don't mess with the Raptors!
