Fish Out of Water

Musings about life & travel from an East Coast native living on the Left Coast in the CA State Capitol since 2004 and now also spending time at a home-away-from-home in Evanston, IL. This fish has lived in Madison, WI (7 years); Portland, OR (2 years); Las Vegas, NV (7 months); Middlebury, VT (3 summers); Marne-la-Vallee, a small town east of Paris, France (6 months); Middletown, CT (3 years); & Marshfield, MA, the fish's coastal hometown 40 miles south of Boston (17 years).

Day 308: Wild Turkeys

I spent several hours today doing a bunch of errands, and after emptying the compost and picking up some bagels at Noah's, I headed up 16th Street, which turns into Route 160. Just past the final stop light on 16th, I glanced over at the levee area where 160 crosses over the American River Parkway, and I spied a quartet of wild turkeys wandering amidst the green grass and enjoying the sunlight.

I used to see turkeys and other urban wildlife near the River when I did my long runs along the levee, so it was a nice reminder to catch a glimpse of these birds, even if it was from my vantage point in the driver's seat of Odo.
