That is the calmest mailman ever!
I realize the turkeys are probably telling him to get the heck out of here, but it's hilarious. 😂
I bet he learned that running turns to chasing so now he just walks... with them. Look how they wait for him. 😳

Btw- Can I mention how respectful that mailman is not crossing the yards to the houses?🤯

But are they attacking him or hoping he'll feed them or...?

(53,842 posts)3. I've got a posse of about 25 turkeys that have been hanging around going after seeds left out for
the songbirds in the feeders. Unlike the crew in the video, our turkeys are woosies. If I take seeds out specifically to throw on the ground for them, they take off. It's kind of funny when they all suddenly take flight. I've never understood it, but I always figured it was better that they're afraid of humans if they want to survive. Pretty soon the males will be putting on their yearly spring show and strutting their stuff for the ladies. Then, in early summer and beyond the little ones show up. I've always loved living in a rural area and watching the wildlife.
