Being big... or not

Colleen and I took the boys to the Long Pasture Wildlife Sanctuary
the other day where we hiked around and had a great time...
that is until a huge turkey blocked our path back to the car.
We were unsuccessful in our attempt to scare the turkey off
and ended up being stalked for 200 feet or so down a trail
by the strutting, angry bird.
We eventually looped around a different way,
only to run back into the same feathered road block.
In desperation, we finally made
a humiliating and very ungraceful dash past the turkey
whom we left in the middle of the trail
likely feeling very proud of himself.
