One Adirondack Turkey Gives Thanks
This is George, a turkey who lives down the hill. She's so cute and sociable she’s been granted a Thanksgiving reprieve. She was hatched this summer in Standish and brought to Saranac Lake by a family who intended to fatten her up for a November feast. George endeared herself so much that she's the one who'll be feasting.
She lives with eight peacocks and probably thinks she is one. Have a happy Thanksgiving, George.

As always Mary, interesting feature.
My family used to raise turkeys for Thanksgiving. We found that naming them was an issue, as it often led to anthropomorphizing the animal and made chopping its head off much more difficult.
Our fix? We would name them Thanksgiving and Christmas!!
