    Driving up Centenniel Dr. in Berkeley early this morning, there was  next to 
    the road large flock of turkey youngsters with adults and one young deer 
    with them. (Mama didn't appear to be around). I stopped to count the turkeys 
    (3 adults, 16-18 young) but the most interesting thing was the deer 
    interaction with the Turkeys. As the flock moved along browsing so did the 
    deer, then it began bounding and prancing at the edge of the flock up and 
    down the length of it several times. It sprang up onto it's hind legs and 
    bounded into the air many times. To my eyes it appeared to be playful 
    behavior, as puppies do when trying to entice others to play.
