He wasn’t begin wry – he didn’t want an eagle as the symbol, it’s the old Roman symbol, a symbol of war and conquest. The turkey, at the time it was still a wild bird, was famous for being clever at avoiding hunters (like the colonists evading the British?) and it could fly. I think domestic turkeys probably can fly too, but why bother, they’re in a shed, and food’s very handy – no need to go look for it.
