Photos: Wild turkey makes a home in couple’s yard

COURTESY PHOTO | A Southold couple had some company outside their home Sunday.

A wild turkey trolling through a Southold neighborhood found one home particularly inviting Sunday. JoAnn Jahncke and her husband Richard noticed the turkey casually hanging outside their home from about 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday.

The turkey tried out most of the couple’s outdoor deck chairs and seemed to be quite at home, they said. The turkey kept looking in the windows and the door, perhaps waiting for an invite.

The turkey, which has been spotted around the neighborhood all week, made a brief appearance at the home again Monday morning before taking off.
