You might call them scrub turkeys at your place. My mum calls them tub skrurkeys to confuse the grandkids. One wandered on to my place from the creek reserve across the road just before sunset today. Is this good? Can I somehow harness its propensity to make nesting mounds to build me compost piles? Or is it a giant garden wrecker?

Is there a way to discourage it (I think the cat would run away if he saw it coming...) if it comes back and starts to dig over my freshly planted beds?
