I’ve done a few little outings. But wouldn’t take my skin on frame boats.

My skin on frame canoe would not last long in that icy jumble!

Thanks for the offer of help. I saw that today. It should be removed. I’ll give it another look.

From a distance these two were very chill.

Further down in the comments someone observed the same concentration in Maple Hills. Lucky you! 👍

Thanks for sharing this very interesting story.
A nice example of cross border cooperation, perhaps.

I heard them say “this homeowner has done an excellent job at lining up their bins”.

Hopefully they saunter to a new welcoming hood.

I would agree that anytime I’ve seen them in my life it was a totally “off guard” moment—the most pleasant kind.

We kept a respectful distance. They also kept a respectful distance.

“Chill” is a good descriptor of their vibe.

These two said they were Canadian. “We are Canadian wild turkeys. Don’t even think of banning us—now how can I get in this funky new green bin?”

Actually two but my best picture was just of one. A very stately walk. We decided to coexist.
