While we wait for the Turkey to thaw the last little bit… here are three things about Turkeys you should know.
There are three towns named Turkey in the US:
- Turkey, Texas
- Turkey Creek, Louisiana
- Turkey, North Carolina
and I had to cheat to get three.
There are only three English words that rhyme with Turkey:
- Jerky
- Murky
- Perky
There are three colorful names for official breeds of Turkey:
- Black Spanish
- Bourbon Red
- Blue Slate
Turkeys have traits humans need to adopt:
- They have no ears, but hear very well
- Old males are preferable to young toms
- Old hens are tougher birds
I like turkeys, a lot. Not just to eat; I’m just sort of fond of them.

This old hen prefers Wild Turkey with her Bourbon Red.

Quirky turkey.
Hmmmm…. I tried to leave the 2 word comment above but was told it was too short, now that is quirky.
