Pray tell, does Italy have turkeys??

Turkey is of the new world Donna, so traditionally Italians would not have had access to it
Nowadays, of course, they have access to everything that everyone else has access to - so some of them will cook it
Particularly those in the US who think that they are somehow still Italians -

He had peacocks and geese too. I loved the peacocks. But they were by far the loudest birds I've ever heard. They would wake ne up from down the road with their calls. Gooooorgeous birds thought. I love peacocks to this day.
Had fun trolling the geese (he kept them instead of guard dogs). Absolutely vicious birds.
Chicken clicking is pretty funny. Have you ever seen Chinese hens? They're kinda fluffy, and have very soft clucks that almost sounds like they're asking a question. -

Oh my goodness.

No I have not!
Let me find a YouTube video of the bird.

The things I used to get up to as a kid. I used to deliberately walk by those geese with a sandwich in my hand….then run like the wind as they chased me for my sandwich.
Geese are amazing watch dogs. They dgaf. They will come after you, and people are kinda used to dealing with dogs attacking, but have no idea wtf to do when a bunch of geese come flapping and hissing and basically threatening your life. They're super territorial.
Here's a Chinese hen. The ones I saw didn't exactly run from me, more like walked juuuust in front of me so I couldn't catch them. And the clucking was lower picthed than this particular hen, and sounded more like a very mild "uh….what you doing?" as opposed to wild running "OMG WTF!" type clucking from regular chickens.
