We have loads of turkeys now in Minneapolis just hanging out in the alleys. It’s kinda funny considering how built up the city is. And the Toms seem to always curious enough to pester folks even if they’re not cornered. It’s weird to see such a skittish bird hang around people.

Well… they don’t taste great (in my opinion).
Maybe they feel safe?

They’re also pretty tough birds. Don’t corner one, they’ll lash at you with their claws. Think ground-level cliff racers.

It is amazing that the rest of the animal kingdom seem to get along just fine. Add humans into the mix and…hell and a hand basket.

I don’t know, to me it looked more like Bambi was being an asshole to a bunch of turkeys minding their own business.

Maybe for a bunch of birds that counts as playful?
I have a young Male Turkey I have been feeding all summer, he plays with the deer, squirrels & chases the groundhogs!!!
