I just got back from hunting Sage grouse in Utah. The tail feathers are that of a male sage grouse. The problem is, they did not have the white chest. It was black. And all four birds shot were lacking the yellow eye brow. What is wrong with these birds? I have gone over the internet and cannot find anything that will help with my problem.
I was wanting to mount one, but I don't want to mount a immature or female sage grouse.
Is it just the time of year or what? Any help would be wonderful.
