Was it love? Or just a really confused bird?

So, this afternoon, naturalists spotted a female turkey standing in front of the hawk's mew. It kept walking back and forth and even jumped up on screen. When staff tried to drive it off, the turkey turned and charged. One very determined Meleagris gallopavo...

Once a group of students came into the area to attend the a raptor program in the amphitheater, the turkey left and hasn't been seen since. But you never know when it comes to love, so maybe the turkey will be back - keep your eyes open.
