Aileen Kim correctly thought I would get a kick out of a turkey crossing the street on Chicago’s North Side.
She emailed Thursday:
I thought you’d get a kick out of these photos I took of a wild turkey on the northwest side of Chicago (4900 block of North Kenneth Avenue). I caught it casually crossing the street at 9:45 this morning. Enjoy!
Enjoy it I did.
I asked if there was tom around gobbling or to be seen and she said not.
Wild of the Week, a celebration of wildlife around Chicago outdoors, runs on the Sun-Times outdoors page on Sundays when apt.
