Many people may not know this but the turkeys are actually doctors and they were conducting a “cat-scan”.
Many years ago, I happened upon a bunch of Guinea Fowl that were circling like this...around a stump.
They looked exactly like these turkeys...in the way one followed another, except for the fact that they were lasered in on the stump.
I spooked them out of there and approached the stump.
There were two smallish Timber Rattlers in the stump.
I was later told that had I watched long enough, the Guineas would have attacked and eaten the snakes.
I have doubts of that, as I've never seen them actually attack a snake, but have seen them eat dead ones and other road kill...and they will circle it and make one hell of a racket before they actually move in for the first peck.
Birds are racist.
Once at at fast food establishment, I noticed there was some food trash in the parking lot which had attracted the attention of some black crows and white sea gulls. The two groups of birds segregated themselves into their own little groups and refused to intermingle.
But unlike humans, they didn't fight with each other for the last French fry.
Wild turkeys have some degree of intelligence to survive. Domesticated turkeys, not so much. While growing up on the farm, I had the idea to raise turkeys. Dad ordered 10 along with maybe 300 chickens, for a couple of years. They all came in the mail. While we were able to raise most to maturity, an occasional one would disappear. Our conclusion was that they probably met an unfortunate fate while investigating a roaming coyote.
Nonsense. Everyone knows that turkeys circle to the LEFT to bring a cat back from the dead.
Probably just making sure it was dead. LOL!
A childhood friend of mine had a orange tabby cat , Tiger, that would pee in the toilet. Not all the time mind you, but if you put him on the seat he’d pee.
And I had one who would “round ‘em up” and herd them out of the yard.
When I told my daughter about his stunt, she told me it was in the genes, his uncle chased deer out of the yard and she had video to prove it.
Those Turkeys appear to have more intelligence than the average Massachusetts voter.
The intelligence of these noble creatures should benefit the public. These Turkeys should be rounded up and shipped to the People’s Republic of Cambridge.
One of the Turkeys can be sent over to MIT to replace Jonathan Gruber.
The rest of the Turkeys can be shipped down Memorial Drive to replace the faculty at the Kennedy School of Government.
Hmmm. Maybe my cat read that article, and that is why if will only pee in the toilet.
LOL!
