Wait, I'm confused. Do you have a pet turkey or do you have a dead turkey that you ate for dinner?

What it is with crazy turkeys down your part of Brisbane. My old man works down that way and said they've got one settling into the garden there too.

Wait so it's just a wild turkey that was passing by and decided to take over your yard?

Yeah, it's a scrub turkey. Not quite the same as the eating variety, but... yeah. Turkey
You should see the mound it's made I'll take a pic tomorrow.

That's pretty funny. Dad was telling me the exact same story today about the one where he works.(Carina)
He reckons he was laughing his head off watching it scratch up all the leaves/sticks and shit but the wind was blowing it straight back over it's head. Was doing it for hours. Eventually it made a massive nest though.

They get POSSESSED. It's been at it for 2 or 3 days now. Seriously, nothing to them matters, except for scratching up as much shit as they can, into one pile. This thing has taken EVERY bit of leaf litter from our yard, and moved it to the left of our deck, about a meter high. You should have seen it yesterday, when it was hot/humid - It was scratching away and panting like it was about to die But it just wouldn't stop.
