Yeah - they only lifted across the road and then landed.

Was recently surprised by a roadrunner doing the same thing - I thought
they were ground-bound as well, but I recently saw one cruise over a fence.

Wild turkeys can fly, not very far but they can. While shooting one
Eastern Regionals at Quantico from the 1000 yard line I managed to whack
a crow in flight about 600 yards downrange..........sheer dumb luck, big
puff of feathers and bird bits.

I've hit a few pidgeons with my truck down in south Texas...and narrowly
avoided a flock of turkeys as well. I didn't even think turkeys could
fly...unlike Herb Tarlic...
