Why Are There So Many Turkeys at This Rockford Intersection?

Driving to work this morning I thought I was gonna puke, because there were 22 turkeys walking next to me.

Ok, so I have a problem with animals in bulk.

I don't know when this started but for at least the last five years, I have been afraid when I see more than two of an animal at the same time (if I'm not at the zoo).

First it was squirrels, then cats and now turkeys.

I know you think I'm crazy, but 22 turkeys!!!! 22 turkeys in one intersection is just TOO MUCH.

I was on the phone with my mom when I passed the rafter of turkeys. Yep, that's the word for all the turkeys at once (thanks, Carol).

While I did stop to take the pictures, I stopped well before that because I was flipping out. I swear at least four of those turkeys could smell the fear though my little red car and were coming to kill me for an early Christmas dinner.

Can turkeys really kill humans? This is something important I need to research.

Needless to say, I will not be leaving the building alone for the rest of the day because that intersection is way too close to the studio.
