Who doesn't love bird related puns?

Turkeys are among the most popular birds in Western society, being the first choice of meat at Thanksgiving and Christmas celebrations. Turkeys are large, intelligent birds with lots of personality, hence they inspire a lot of funny puns about Christmas and beyond.

Did you know that some turkeys can swim and some wild turkeys can even fly? What's more, the shape of a turkey's poo can tell you whether it's come from a female turkey or a male turkey.

Speaking of male turkeys, only male turkeys gobble. Female turkeys make more of a clicking sound. You might also be surprised to know that turkeys are afraid of umbrellas when they are opening and predator kites hanging from poles, but not humans!

One of the traits that make turkeys special is the fact that they have better vision than humans - three times greater, to be specific. Also, their peripheral vision is greater, at 270 degrees, whereas ours is 180 degrees.

This enables them to detect motion from far and wide. A female turkey is called a hen, a make turkey is called a tom and a young turkey is called a poult.

A young male turkey is also called a jake. Each turkey (hen, tom, or poult) has a unique voice, making them recognisable to one another.

Read on to discover loads of funny turkey puns.
