Before we take off for the Thanksgiving weekend, we wanted to leave you with this priceless moment in which wild turkeys stage a critical mass and block traffic in Staten Island.

Who knew turkeys had such strong feelings about equal treatment for nonmotorized transportation?

Note: Streetsblog does not condone the videographer's pro-hunting zeal, nor do we condone operating a videocamera while driving, especially with an NYCDOT placard in your windshield.

We'll be off tomorrow and Friday (and we hope you will be too). See you next week!
