Birds, kuşlar.

And the crow is so stupid.
Yes, this is a kid's song.
"Crows are black." Kargalar siyahtır.
3. martı "seagull"
If you take a ferry in Istanbul, from, let's say, from Asian side to European side, or from European side to Asian side, doesn't matter, then you can see that there are many seagulls, and they're actually approaching to you, and many people are just feeding them with their bread or some special Turkish bread that we call simit. It's kind of a very famous, a very popular activity in Turkey. So if you go to Istanbul, don't forget to buy a bread before you take a ferry.
Let's say, "you can see many seagulls in Istanbul."
İstanbul'da bir çok martı görebilirsiniz.
4. tavuskuşu "peacock"
Do you know, peacock? It has a really big and colorful tail. It's really really beautiful.
"Peacocks have very colorful feathers." Tavuskuşlarının çok renkli tüyleri vardır.
5. hindi "turkey"
Yeah, it's kind of funny, right? I mean, when you say Turkey, some people think it's actually the bird, turkey, but it's actually not, it's the country Turkey.
"I saw a turkey in Turkey." Türkiye'de hindi gördüm.
