Wild turkey crashes through window of Wis. home

MISHICOT, Wis. (AP) -- A Wisconsin woman and her 5-year-old daughter got a fowl visitor when an unwelcome wild turkey crashed through a bedroom window.

Heidi Herrera said she was watching television with her daughter Thursday when the bird quickly charged into the living room of their home in the eastern Wisconsin town of Mishicot. Herrera got her daughter and their pet Chihuahua to safety in another bedroom. The mother then ventured out and found the turkey in the kitchen.

When she walked toward it, the bird ran out the open front door and down the street, leaving behind feathers, blood and glass scattered throughout the house.

Wildlife biologist Aaron Buchholz of the state Department of Natural Resources said turkeys can't see windows and the bird probably thought it could fly through the bedroom when it crashed through the window.

Dumbass turkey.

For two days in a row now a Canadian goose has honked at me in my front yard...

I realize that's not a turkey.

Therefore there's no point to my post.

As Gilda Radner playing Emily Litella used to say on Saturday Night Live, "Never mind".

THE INTELLIGENCE IS OBVIOUS?

THE INTELLIGENCE IS OBVIOUS?

My kid ran into a wild turkey while riding his motorcycle at 60 mph, smacked him right in the face, required a lot of dental work, but fortunately he didn't get hurt to bad when it knocked him off his bike. City ordinance is worthless in catching these, they are too fast for them. Already had them on my deck, glad they didn't try to plow though my patio doors, glass costs 415 bucks plus labor. But they are definitely afraid of humans, run away like their butts are on fire.
