boy i sure post a lot on weekends

sorry about the post i made that disappeared. it was intended for thequestionclub originally. i appreciate the comments i got before it was deleted, though!

Today I saw tree swallows at ward's pond, and this evening we saw a wild turkey in the riverway.

I did some research about Mattapan for tomorrow's Urban nature walk--which may be completely unattended. It was a Jewish neighborhood up until the 60's, then a group called Boston Bank Urban Renewal Group began providing loans to African Americans to buy homes in the area. By the 70's almost all the Jewish families had moved elsewhere, and today the population is over 90 percent of African and Caribbean descent. Mattapan has the highest concentration of Haitian people anywhere in Massachusetts. The neighborhood has the second least amount of public land per capita, after the south end. Most of the public land is in the Boston Nature Center, where we're walking tomorrow.

I wish weekends were 4 days long.

Are wild turkeys agressive?

Yes, potentially. The males have been known to attack things, but usually it's reflective things, since they think they are attacking another male turkey.
