The story of Little Turk was inspired by a small flock of wild turkeys which strayed onto our farm in Scotland one year in early autumn. All the farm animals were intrigued by their elaborate, colourful plumage and eccentric behaviour. The turkeys would visit most days and then return to roost in the Wild Wood at night. One young turkey was particularly inquisitive and developed a fascination for the horses, following them everywhere. He clearly wanted to live among the farmyard animals. This story tells the tale of the young turkey's eventual return to the wild.
