Strangest thing you've experienced today?

I'll start:
Today I impulsively stopped and went for a long walk around the river with the dog. It was maybe a mile mile or two.
While we were on the trail a young black woman jogger passed by. She had long legs and a great stride. Her big hair was tied back and she was wearing black spandex leggings with bright rainbow stripes down the sides.

The dog and me finally got back to the car and drove off, but about another mile away on the other side of a busy 4-laner I saw her again jogging fast towards my car from the other side of the street.
She kept looking back and then running faster.
Why?
Then I saw it: A wild turkey was chasing her in town.

Now son, I have seen plenty of wild turkeys in my day before but I have never never seen anything like that one.
This was not any turkey.
It was literally the size of a freaking ostrich with stumpy legs.
If you take any regular turkey and multiply it by 5 or 10 you might be getting closer to the true size of that one.
Think Jurassic Park okay. The shoulders were probably four feet high and with head it would top six feet easy.

I kept driving because the drama had passed behind me but it will not be anything to forget soon.
