Sorry for the late post, but I didn't realize that
wild turkeys are somewhat rare for King County until I
looked at the eBird stats this week--

Last Sunday I was on a hike with mostly non-birding
friends up to Rattlesnake Ridge and I heard Wild
Turkey calling from the salmonberry. Didn't get any
looks through the dense shrubbery (could these
possibly be escapees?), but my birding friend and I
heard it (or them) several times.

The calls were heard at the North end of Rattlesnake
Lake, on the flat part of the path that takes you up
to Rattlesnake Ridge.
Rattlesnake Lake is near North Bend off of I-90 and is
relatively easy to get to, just search for Rattlesnake
Lake online.
