Wild turkey surprise
Since the start of the pandemic, a lot more wild turkeys have appeared on Montreal streets. A page on the city website advises not to approach them or feed them, but maybe push them away with “an umbrella or a stick” without actually hitting them.
The expert consulted by Metro notes that these birds can flap a little way in the air but mostly don’t fly, so the mystery is how they got onto the island at all.

Can’t help thinking of Les Nessman at WKRP….

I never watched that show, but I know the famous scene you mean.

Perhaps the turkeys reached the island of Montreal by trekking over the ice in the winter.
