Title: Huns?
Post by: KP-Skagit on November 27, 2021, 05:15:59 PM: Where in the heck are they? Last year chukar hunting I was basically guaranteed a couple bonus huns. Haven't managed one this year compared to over 30 chukar. I did see one monster covey (40+) but they jumped way wide.

What is everyone else seeing?

Odd, but these quail all came from high slopes in Douglas county while pursuing chukar this week. Kittitas is my stomping ground for huns. Most days are 2-4 coveys while chukaring.
