This is hilarious. From the best episode ever. Was loosely based on a true story.
I was camping in Oregon when a herd (flock?) of wild (feral?) turkeys came rambling through the woods, gobbling in that musical sort of way they do.
It was getting on dusk, and as we watched, one by one they took flight. Granted, this wasn't an impressive, miles-long flight - just up into the trees for the night. Still, they were able to fly about thirty feet up to roost away from predators.
Cool thing to watch. Whole flock fits in a tree or two
