Wild Turkey
Just about this time a few years ago, we found a wild turkey in our big back yard in Somerville. (We even have the pictures to prove it) And a few years before that, I saw one on the spine of the Old South Meeting House. Here are a couple recent incidences:
Wild Turkey @ Your Library
A male wild turkey’s nesting season took a painful turn when it flew through a double window at the Western branch of St. Joseph County (Ind.) Public Library in South Bend shortly before 9 a.m. April 7.

And from the Madison, WI police log:
Police taser wild turkey
[thanks to PChippy's brother for alerting us to this one!]

Oddly enough, a wild turkey just rolled into the yard outside my library. Coincidence? Or government plot? You decide.

The copy editor in me is amused to note that the turkey in the Madison report is described as "viscous."

I saw a wild turkey the other day. It was on the on ramp where market street in Brighton turns into Memorial Drive. It looked right through me!

I saw a black vulture pecking at a dead oppossum on the side of the road a few days ago. It looked a little thin.
