I was sitting on the front porch at 7:00 am, listening to the birds in the neighborhood. My buddy Rustle (our orange tabby) was in the lawn munching the new turf grass, when we both heard a sound from between my house and the neighbor's. Rustle suddenly bolted to the safety of the porch as 4 Wild Turkeys strutted forth and walked up to the street. Almost in unison, they exploded into the air and flew across the road into the wooded lots on the adjacent side street. I walked down the street a couple of time, but could not re-acquire them. See you on the trails, Chris Pierce N.
