Ramona used to be known as the turkey capital of our region.
The turkey ranches are gone, but now there are wild turkeys. They are not native to our region; they were introduced by hunters a few decades ago and are now quite common.

There was a turkey ranch in Lemon Grove in the 1950's, I'd mimic their call and the birds would go crazy. Gobble,gobble,gobble..... Ha ha.
