I’m pretty sure the flying turnips are supposed to be ducks. The closest looking game bird species that I can find to the walking turtles is the chucker. The engravers must have been going by some kind of pattern because that same bird is on more than one Parker. I took a pic of another example I found in TPS.

Flying turnips and walking turtles ... What gives?

You’d think they could have done better.

Default Unidentified birds

Based on the time period they could be prairie chickens.
