Traffic Jam

I got stuck in a traffic jam on a back road in Salem, NH tonight. There was a flock of wild turkeys crossing the street… single file… yeah, we were stopped there for a long time. There were at least 20 of them, but I couldn’t count them because they kept hiding behind the other stopped cars.

The irony of getting stopped by turkeys on the day after Thanksgiving is… dare I say it… delicious?

Back Yard Guest

This cat has been hanging around all afternoon.

Obligatory South Park quotes:

  • “Something went wrong. And the turkeys broke free. And the worst part is .they’re really pissed off.” Dr. Alphonse Mephesto
  • “Wow, those are some pissed off turkeys!”
  • “These fudged up turkeys from the crustaceous era can take our lives, but they can never take our FREEDOM!” Chef
  • “Every turkey dies, not every turkey truly lives.” Chef

Back Yard Wilderness

I created a new set on Flickr to hold all of the pictures I take of various wild animals who come and visit our back yard.  I haven’t decided whether or not to include the snake I saw in the cellar today.
