Wild turkeys continue to be one of the most exciting sightings for many people.
This may be both because they were once so rare and because when they're seen, it is often is such great numbers. They are also interesting creatures. Take, for example, a couple of weeks ago when we were driving down to Stamford on Route 124 in Pound Ridge. The car in front of us suddenly slowed and stopped as a pair of turkeys crossed the road. We and a car behind us also stopped and noticed on the right that more than a dozen other turkeys were also thinking of crossing.
