Thanks Bob!   

Must be a species that are not too afraid of living close to man? Don't think we have 'em around here. For that matter, quite a few folks around here have to "travel" to do any kind of ground squirrel shooting. Friend just got back from Montana, where no type of license is required to shoot them. He had a blast too.

Here is the vermin in question. Shot 5 today. Not too good, but any day in the field is a good day. Did shoot one at over 100 yards with the old 10/22.  :IBCOOL:

the grey diggers, compared to the other squirrels look most similar to the grey squirrel in size. but the grey diggers tend to by slightly more tan colored and are covered in spots. lit up a bunch above klickitat saturday with a 243.

  On page 12 of the regs, top of the orange box directly under Big Game Licenses....... "Forest grouse and unclassified wildlife (including coyote) may be hunted with either a small game license or a big game license." Grey diggers would probably fall into the UNCLASSIFIED group if it is listed as a game animal, endangered species, or protected animal.  Should be able to hunt with either license.  :twocents:

Heres one for you!!!

It lists "Crows", BUT Ravens are PROTECTED. Crows have squared off tail feathers, RAVENS have squared off tail feathers with both sides "tapered", so if you look at what most of us call "Crows", you'll notice they are a subspecies of RAVEN, and are in Fact-----PROTECTED.

A "Bird Guy" taught me this a while ago.....and I'll just bet our Game Wardens are not aware of this FACT.

Don't believe me? Look it up, I did.

yep magpies, crows, ravens all related and very easy to tell apart plus tend to have different habits crows (and magpies) tend to gather in murders, ravens more often are in pairs or small family groups

I thought the only thing you could "hunt" without licences is the bull frog.

Yes I know the government waste's money but it's 36 bucks, around here that's not even dinner for two somewhere nice.

:chuckle: no worries :chuckle: Just making a point. It's always good to look in the reg's instead of ask and get into trouble over, "well they said on the internet  :chuckle:"

You could not have said it better!!!
