A turkey showed up at my house. I don’t live in a rural area

I live in suburban south Florida. A few days ago, we came home and a turkey (I think???) was chilling by my pool. It has come and gone from my yard since then and I’ve seen it around the neighborhood while walking my dog. Is this an escaped pet???? I have lived in this area for 20 years and have never seen a wild turkey.

Room cooling help please!

I’ve lived in Florida my entire life. I’m not new to the summer heat but I would really love some room-cooling advice.

I’ve owned my home for 5 years and every summer, my bedroom gets so hot. It makes it so difficult to sleep. For context, my house is 3000sqf. I have 2 AC units that are less than 5 years old. My windows are hurricane impact and tinted. I keep the AC at 72 and our units NEVER shut off in the summer. They run constantly and the house can never manage to get below 74. Our bedroom gets so warm and doesn’t cool down after sunset even with the ceiling fan and keeping the blinds drawn all day. Maybe it’s because I’m getting older (31) but I am having such a difficult time sleeping at night when the room is warm. Does anyone have tips for cooling our bedroom?! A window AC unit isn’t possible (we have floor to ceiling windows in the master that do not open). Help! I’m melting.
