What kind of 🦅 birds??? Joey
They never bring stuffing. Terrible manners.
If only Oprah gave them a car.
Wild turkeys; commentators re: disappearing natural species!!
Obviously Waze is now detouring them out of the woods and across the road.
Love that turkey trot. If they are indeed turkeys. Can someone clarify? Maybe they’re even Turkey vultures.
Top image is of course, is stunning. The 2nd image of the coastline from across the the Saugatuck river is special.
The 2nd image of the birds crossing Lyon Plains is unusual as these birds are difficult to identify. Are they turkeys? Turkey vultures? Or…?
Love these pictures..(For years,my family lived off Lyons Plains Rd. just over the Westport-Weston town line..One time, en route to Weston Rd.-just where Coleytown Rd. meets Lyons Plains-we came around that curve in the road
there & traffic stopped, both ways,while a mama duck & her ducklings waddling-crossing Lyons Plains…(we talked of that, for years, afterwards..
Truly
our own ‘Make way for Ducklings’ story..:-)
Hello Linda Pomerantz Novis! Sure do miss hearing you play!
Yes, these are our native Wild Turkeys.

Turkey Vultures are close in size but have a red head.

Thanks for the Dameon’s memories,Robbie! 🙂
I have up to 2 dozen turkeys in my yard most evenings. Pretty sure they are turkey hens.
I’m sure it is not the first time there are turkeys on Lyons Plain Road, perhaps of the human variety, being a little tongue in cheek here. I lived in Westport as an au pair in 1967-68, and remember Lyons Plains Road many times, since I had friends in Weston, Though will have to say of the friends I remember, and some I’m still in touch with, I would not describe any of them as turkeys.
