There have been reports that a flock of wild turkeys has been ruffling feathers at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.

While turkeys have wandered the grounds of the world-renowned lab for years, they've apparently gotten very bold lately.

There have been reports of turkeys blocking the roads, interrupting meetings and chasing people.

When NBC11's Jodi Hernandez arrived at the lab she said she quickly found a flock of about a dozen turkeys quietly grazing on the side of the road.

Hernandez said they hardly seemed a menace, but when Michael Dupray arrived, the turkeys perked up and started chasing him.

Dupray is a radiation control technician at the lab.

Dupray said he rides to work every day on his Segway scooter.

Hernandez said she watched the turkeys chase Dupray, gobbling loudly.

She said they also tried to peck at him.
