Photo of the Day: Wild Turkey Visits Belmont Backyard

[Editor's note: This "Photo of the Day" is from the Patch archives---it originally ran in May of this year, and was too good not to re-run for Thanksgiving.]

Thank you to Belmont resident Kenn Parsons for sharing this photo with Belmont Patch. Kenn spotted this wild turkey in the backyard of his home on St. James Road in May.

It's unclear if there are more where this guy came from, but a far as Kenn knows, this is the first time he's ever had such a unique visitor in his yard.

Have YOU ever seen wild turkeys around Belmont (the bird kind that is)? If so, tell us about it in the comments.

If you've taken a photo of a wild critter in your Belmont backyard, and you'd like to share it with Patch readers, email it to the editor at joan.dentler@patch.com.
