:Calls from an agitated adult turkey in response to human intruder. There were a family group of turkeys (perhaps 8-10 young?) that I accidentally disturbed on the wooded hillside next to my campsite. The adults called nervously for a while before flying toward me (@ 0:35) and landing in a tree perhaps 5 meters up and 5 meters away from me while continuously calling. It eventually flew off after the rest of the group had made it safely away down the hill. Some high-pitched calls from the young can also be heard.
