Spotted Rosie the Turkey roaming Roosevelt Island this evening near the Blackwell Park Water Fountain and crossing Main Street.
Rosie had a close encounter with oncoming Main Street traffic and the Red Bus tonight but was protected by a concerned resident who helped her safely cross the street.

No one knows how the wild turkey Astoria got to NYC, which is a long way from wild turkey populations. After spending time roaming the City–including Queens, where she got her name–she took flight across the East River to Roosevelt Island in May. https://t.co/HEDiRVt6m5
