The turkey was brought to America by the Pilgrims in 1620, though the wild Turkey was introduced by the Wampanoag tribe. Today, turkey is used in many delicacies and is especially related to Thanksgiving. Some common breeds of turkey are: Narragansett, Bronze, White Holland, and Bourbon Red.<a href="https://Thomas Venneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10806971416198629441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478505267875308908.post-54191719128763972432018-02-06T21:28:53.114-08:002018-02-06T21:28:53.114-08:00ThanksThanksThomas Venneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10806971416198629441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478505267875308908.post-89231164960577016352008-11-09T03:08:00.000-08:002008-11-09T03:08:00.000-08:00Hi Anonymous.

Once I found my place, I didn't stand up at all, but I did shift around a bit from time to time.
