Guess it's been banned from all the Brookline inspection stations.

Maybe he is looking for a job.

This is either Hampshire Street in Cambridge or (more likely) Beacon Street in Somerville.

I have been informed that it was at Dodakins, at Beacon and Park. Didn't note the name when I went to take the pic.

Dodakins is classic! Love that place. Also, it is right on the Cambridge/Somerville line so technically the street could be in Somerville, but saying it is Cambridge would probably be fine too.

...when urban turkeys will cease to be headline-worthy. All this attention is kind of like how Manhattanites freaked out when Krispy Kreme came to Chelsea.

Nearly hunted to extinction, they adapted to become urban scavengers. Seems like the Turkeys are on the same trajectory.
