Oh, You Turkey! turns 30

Updated: November 27, 2008 - 10:09 PM

It's a special day for our Thanksgiving turkey. As he prepares to be colored by thousands of kids in the Star Tribune's annual coloring contest, he's also celebrating his 30th birthday. Staff artist and designer Bruce Bjerva has drawn all 30 of the turkeys, giving each a new look. What can you add to his appearance this year?
