Never had snows but shot and ate most others.  The smaller the bird the better eating in my opinion, but there's nothing better than watching the biggest honkers dropping from the sky.

Snows.  The young grey ones are the best eating.

I'll agree with that order.

  I added a new bird to my list after last season.  I shot some when I was up in Saskatchewan.  Sandhill Cranes.  Very tasty!  Now I know why they are called ribeye in the sky...

Wish we had a huntable population here.

I am pretty sure Idaho has a season for them. That would be a fun hunt  :drool: :drool: :drool:

I believe the guy who ever called a crane the ribeye of the sky must of been eating a speck thinking it was a crane.  Crane ok but not even close to the taste of speck. 
Don't read my post if facts hurt your feeling.

Dang, I found some nice big cranes, I am not sure what variety but they look like shooters to me. Too bad they aren't legal here. :( I got a pic to post though.
