He's no April Fool!

No Joke: Twice in the last month, Nicole and I were sightseeing in the Bronx when wild turkeys paraded on by. They tend to do that in our neck of the woods.

A large male wild turkey flaunts his feathers at Woodlawn Cemetery.
Why the influx? As recently as 2007, towns like White Plains as Scarsdale were dumping raw sewage into the Bronx River. No longer. And with the waste out of the way, turkeys are some of the largest birds that we have seen to take advantage of the cleaner waterway.
