Turkey invasion

Well, that was a surprise! Weird stressed noises behind the trees. Scary. What’s that? Another kereru (NZ pigeon)? No…

11 turkeys crossing our garden!

Local research revealed that they didn’t escape from a nearby farm, but are probably wild ones strolling around the hills.

Could be a scary scene out of Jurrasic Park, couldn't it?
