Man, sometimes you have to deal with some real turkeys during the morning commute! I grabbed some pictures to record their disruptive behavior. How can they get away with blocking the road like this?

I was pretty much floored pulling in to work one morning this week. There was a honking big bird sitting on the trunk of a car parked in a handicapped slot (i.e., right in the main flow of traffic into/out of the building). As I rode slowly past it, that turkey (hen) just stood there and watched me go by less than five feet away.
I didn't have a camera, and was too stunned to take it out if I'd had it, so no pictures.

I'm afraid I'd be thinking more about a very large clubhouse sandwich than taking pix.
I realize those Texas/NM wild turkeys have a rep for possessing a certain innate beligerance. I'm nevertheless willing to do battle for a very large clubhouse sandwich. Especially right now, at this very moment. Maybe sub the side pork/bacon w/ prosciutto, go nutz with the mayo, and just slightly lightly toast the bread so it's a little golden but still soft. Slide some chipotl slices in there. mmmm ... tryptophan and papain and fat and cholesterol. Dee-lishus!
cheers, Tom
