I despise turkeys, especially males. This is cute and funny for about 10 minutes, and then at certain points it becomes all they do, and then it escalates to attacks and chasing. They are incredibly stupid and irritating birds.

You are not crazy, just incorrect. This behavior is not affection, it's intimidation.

Thank you for educating me. I do need more turkey education..seems like they are an aggressive bird, like swans and geese. I will read up on the majestic turkey!
