Why Does A Turkey Cross The Road?

These birds were seen a few days ago on Rimrock Road, calmly walking across the road, even when a few disgruntled motorists honked at them. Those behind the fence seemed agitated as they apparently couldn't figure out how to get free.



Mind you, this was only a few days before Thanksgiving 2008. Brazen behavior. There were a dozen or so that I saw in this group. The majority were already across the road around 420 Rimrock.


They must be wild as they didn't seem to have that nice fat breasty look that I see at CostCo or wherever dead turkeys congregate. They seemed fairly tame wild birds as they let me walk up fairly close to them. I thought they would fly away but no they just kept their eyes on me and then went back to their pecking.

“In beholding old stones we may feel our anxieties about our achievements–and lack of them–slacken . . . Vast landscapes [and seascapes] can have an anxiety–reducing effect similar to ruins, for they are the representatives of infinite space, as ruins are the representatives of infinite time, against which our weak, short-lived bodies seem no less inconsequential than those of moths or spiders.”—Alain de Botton in Status Anxiety
