Turkeys Dislike Mailman
The unofficial motto of the United States Postal service states that "Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds," but it never made any mention of wild turkeys. Nonetheless, a brave, anonymous postman in the Falmouth, Massachusetts area is not letting a local gang of turkeys interrupt his route despite the fact that they harass him on a daily basis.
While hampering a federal employee in this way is a perfectly "fowl" thing to do, I'm glad to see that this mailman is no bird-brain. He's gotten used to standing his ground against the turkeys, to the point that he's even got a pole that he brings with him on this particular stop that helps him keep the belligerent birds at bay. Most mailmen worry about being chased by dogs, but this poor guy has to deal with a bunch of angry wild turkeys.
Don't you wonder what these turkeys are so angry about, and why they've decided to target the mailman? Are they waiting for Christmas cards and gifts that never come, year after year? What does come to turkeys year after year, holiday after holiday, is the axe, and that's a pity, because they are intelligent, sociable birds.
Even if you have no intention whatever of sending a turkey a holiday card, do them all a favour and leave off eating them. You can find oodles of festive, delicious, plant-based foods on http://KindMeal.my. Don't incur the wrath of the turkeys.
