Fighting back: One company's valiant struggle against the terror turkeys of Beacon Street

How long?
Think this problem will be cleared up by, say, November 22nd?
I was gonna say
How come nobody's chasing them with a roasting pan?
Is it considered "free range"?
If you nab a turkey on the loose in Brookline, can you call it a "free range" turkey or not?
Home on the range!
Where the shoppers and the MTA play.
Blame Grumpy Cop
People showing up for musket licenses keep arriving one minute past his watch time for their appoinment and parking in the wrong unsigned place.
Word of Advice?
Maybe they're all badass now, having been citified and everything, but I've found that if you don't retreat, the turkeys (turkies?) won't attack. (used to chase a couple around some friends' property in "devolved" Lincoln for laughs.)
My ex, who grew up with geese, demonstrated the exact same thing with those damn emden/toulouse/canada miscegenation abominations on the Camb side of the BU bridge: I'd back off and they'd go on the offensive. He'd keep moving forward and they'd run away.
