John Adams' choice was the bald eagle. It was a battle between himself, Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin. Jefferson wanted the dove; Franklin the turkey. Despite Franklin ranting and raving over the notion of "a cowardly bird" such as the bald eagle, it was put to a vote and the bald eagle won.

If you're asking about the United States' national bird, it was because nobody liked the idea. Actually, Benjamin Franklin, the guy who had the idea, personally thought the turkey was a better fit than the bald eagle, but was not very open or pushy with it. I believe in the same letter, he commented that nobody would want it to be the national bird and seemed to be joking when he mentioned the turkey.
