That bird was flying under the influence of Wild Turkey.
Is the turkey okay?

OMG….same thing happened to me yesterday in Middlesex!!!

Did she get to keep the turkey to eat?
Woohoo no tariffs on that Thanksgiving Turkey lol
I just hope LiMu Emu isn’t the adjuster..might be a distant relative..lol..😜
They would have had to treat me for a heart attack!
Windshield has got bird flu. Call insurance company for vaccine.
I can’t imagine the faces on the First responders when they got there. The woman handled it well though-goodness!
At the high prices of food, at least she got a free turkey for free. She can use that bird for thanksgiving or Christmas. That turkey had it in his mind saying “for all the turkeys all there, I’m making a sacrifice for all the turkey’s out there to live as I give up my life for freedom!”
Obviously that bird had issues!!!
I cannot believe that turkey got stuffed into the windshield like that. It just gobbled it up. Definitely not a chicken.
Driver: “I just hit a turkey!”
Mechanic: “How’s the car?”
Driver: “Stuffed.”
There wasn’t a WKRP helicopter in the area was there?
