This is typical in Dallas, when I lived there it was not uncommon to find turkey's in the backyard or roaming the streets in flocks of 30+ birds.
Turkey invasion?

Cool thanks for sharing. I wonder what happend to their home and what casued them to invade the city. I can't imagine them sticking around too long if the food source is gone. In my experience, if people are feeding them then they will probably become quite tame. As far as the crap goes a broom works wonders.

The city of Dallas is their home, has been for a very long time. I would bet 99% of the residents never feed them. This is a very rural area with numerous wooded areas in and around the city. I moved there in 2000 and was amazed to see not only wild turkey's walking down the streets but also deer in the yards as well as pheasants, skunks,peacocks and who knows what other critters that haven't been totally displaced by humans. The city of Monmouth, right down the highway, has nearly exterminated the population of beautiful, but pesky peacocks in their neighborhoods. Sadly, the turkey's will likely end on an official hit list soon.

Last Saturday I saw a flock of about 10 in a Farmer's field outside of Keizer. :shock:
And yes they were wild.

Hey yall...listen up. You in Dallas Texas ought to come up to the NW and live among the Canadian geese for awhile. A few months of that and the turkeys won't seem so bad anymore.

What would Ben Franklin say? Franklin thought the turkey was more sutable to be the nations symbol than the bald eagle.
