A turkey was spotted on Bay State Road at about 11:30 a.m. Wednesday.
College of Communication sophomore Christopher Wilcox saw the turkey walking on the sidewalk in front of Towers.
“I saw a turkey standing between two parked cars . . . I pulled out my phone and took a picture of it . . . I mean how often do you see turkeys in the middle of Boston?” he said in an email. “It was minding it’s [sic] own business; it wasn’t following anyone or approaching anyone on the street.”

College of Arts and Sciences sophomore Liz Mirovich saw the turkey after she exited the International Relations Department building.
“I just followed it across the street because I was wondering what it was doing there,” she said.
She followed it to the Towers lawn and snapped a photo with her phone.
