Media notes
Excellent female enticement call, with one instance of a male responding.
Observation details
I at first heard female calls and then a male responding, but I feared that the female might be actually a poacher trying to lure in a male to shoot. I had to yell out to make sure I wasn't shot by some idiot poacher, but it turned out the female call was a real turkey. There were several in the area, including one walking through the woods, two that flew out of the calling site, and two more walking down the DME road. The second, longer recording is much better.
