2 Turkeys?

 My neighbor said he had 2 Turkeys on his lawn earlier in the morning - a boy and girl!

morning around my house

 I went to get gas early in the morning and heard a Blackpoll as soon as I went outside!  I also saw the Turkey on my street a few houses down.

Massapequa Preserve

 I went to the preserve in the morning hoping to find the turkey, didn't see it but there were a lot of birds singing - I was using Merlin and heard a very load sound that was ID's as a Northern Waterthrush.  I did confirm it visually and saw it briefly in the little muddy area near the bridge/ stream.  I also saw a Magnolia Warbler which are always nice/ pretty to see in the Spring.  I also found a Baltimore Oriole nest right above the bridge with 2 orioles going back and forth.

Turkey in my neighborhood

 On the Massapequa Dad's FB page, someone posted he saw a turkey in front of his house (near Parkside Drive)  I went looking for it and after a while I found it!  Nice addition to my area.  It would cross Parkside between front yards and the preserve.  I hope it stays safe since we don't have the best drivers around here.
