Would you choose a turkey for our national bird ?

Ben Franklin wanted that their heads go red, white and blue.

They should of gone with the bird that only lost by one vote to the eagle

I say go with the turkey. I have not tasted bald eagle yet.

They taste like a cross between a spotted own and a loon.

LOL, just like chicken.

What the heck is that?

That looks like one ticked off rooster.

I was thinking about this some, seems that eagles are somewhat popular as mascots but you don't see too many turkeys as mascots......

Game (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) hmmm...well lets try rooster.

It seems the turkey has be done wrong by the eagle and is now tearing down statues of any thing containg a eagle .

The eagle is an appropriate symbol for Democrats: "For my part, I wish the eagle had not been chosen as the representative of this country. He is a bird of bad moral character; he does not get his living honestly. You may have seen him perched in some dead tree where, too lazy to fish for himself, he watches the labor of the fishing hawk and, when that diligent bird has at length taken a fish and is bearing it to his nest for his young ones, the bald eagle pursues him and takes the fish. With all this injustice, he is never in good case." ~ Ben Franklin.

Birds of a feather flock together.

I'm pretty sure a full grown tom turkey has more meat than a bald eagle.

A wild bird is no dummy they can be rather crafty.

Gamecock only lost by one vote, no one brings that up anymore because of the negative light fighting roosters is viewed in.

I have much more respect and admiration for a wild turkey gobbler than a bald eagle.

Glorified buzzard in essence.

If the wild turkey was our national bird we probably wouldn’t be able to hunt them.

I have seen bald eagles many times feasting on coyote carcass piles. Thought turkeys were eating grasshoppers in my garden but they were eating greenbeans too.


I think our national bird should be a middle finger pointed at the hammer and sickle

..because the Wild Turkey is nobler/sharper and not a scavenger/bully.

Or china! Or both!
