Moment of humor! [View all]

Went out for a mountain bike ride down our dirt road this morning... When I turn around to come home who should I see but Ernie the tame wild turkey trotting down the road after me...! Silly bird, he jogged home following me back. Turkey trotting all the way! Wish I had a video, truly funny!
