Turkey Trot. It was Tuesday evening, August 5th, about 8 p.m. when these these wild mother turkeys and their young poults trotted across our backyard here next to Carver Park. I saw them from my kitchen window. Allan said it’s the first time he ever saw a turkey hen and her little ones out in the open like this for an evening feeding.
