TOWN LINE • August 12, 2020
Traveling through rural Maine can be beautiful, both for its landscape and, secondly, its wildlife. Recently, I had two of those encounters. On Sunday, while on our way in Belgrade, we came across a rafter of turkeys crossing the road. The last one white. My first thought: an albino turkey. It turned out to be a Royal Palm turkey, a domestic breed. My other encounter was a red fox, the largest of the true foxes. ~ Roland D. Hallee
