As I said earlier I did not know Grebes were not legal to shoot until it was mentioned during this thread. I do not have photos, names or anything else, I believe the vehicle was red.

Does anyone know if the shooting of the grebes was reported to IDFG in that region? In the future, if you can get a vehicle description or license plate and any other details (the more the better) it goes a long way to helping them in actually making the case.

I saw two hunters who asked if hunting was allowed there. It is.

 

I heard them shooting later and saw them waiting for a couple of Eared Grebes to float in with the wind they found out it was not wadable where they were. I told them the birds were not very good to eat but they said they ground them up for sausage and jerky.
