Ed. Note: Thanks to all who’ve been messaging me turkeys lately. That’s a funny sentence to type… Please send still photos and not videos unless the turkey is doing back flips or something. :)
Thanks to Nick for sending the photo above from Adams Morgan: “Turkey strolling down Mintwood Place in the Kalorama/AdMo area. Watching people do double-takes as they noticed it was quite funny.”
And thanks to Karen for sending the photo below from Foggy Bottom:
“A wild turkey walking around in Foggy Bottom (26th & K Streets NW). I’ve lived in this neighborhood for over 40 years, and of all the wildlife I’ve seen here, I’ve never before seen a wild turkey.”
If you spot a hawk, any interesting wildlife or celebrity skateboarder Tony Hawk, and get a good photo please send in an email where you spotted them to [email protected]. Thanks! Hawks around Town is made possible by a generous grant from the Ben and Sylvia Gardner foundation.
