Fence them out or fence your turkeys in.
Eat the turkeys.
I think turkeys will eat everything they can get their beaks on...bugs, weeds, flowers, veggies..
Just like chickens. I think you're gonna have to build a barrier (chicken wire?) to keep them out of the bed if they are free-range or keep them penned if they aren't.
Maybe some fake hawks or owls or foxes or coyotes might scare them away (a scareturkey instead of a scarecrow), but I doubt it. I've seen life-sized coyote photos to keep geese from ponds in public gardens! But that may not be the look you want.
I am so laughing but not at you! So...you have turkeys in your yard? A new one on me. Maybe you can buy turkey "beak" guards or spank them with a fly swatter and tell them "no!"
I am thinking you have wild turkeys in your area and they are wily creatures. Some kind of wire fencing for your plants with possibly wire for the top other wise the turkeys will "drop in" on them. The stronger chicken wire might work. I have wild turkeys, too, and I just plant other goodies for them away from what I want to keep. They still eat some of mine but not as much. But hey, it's wild life and we have encroached upon their habitat so I just plant enough for everybody!
Me again. I don't know where your flowers are(near house, vegetable garden, etc.) but look into some natural deterrents that they won't like the smell of. I don't know of any off hand but try the internet, wildlife center or garden centers for ideas. Good luck wish I could be of better assistance.
