Yeah, bird watchers make for good spies. I think I was suspected of being a spy when I was stationed in Germany during the Cold War, when exercising my birding hobby. I once had a James Bond kind of thrill when I looked down into Czechoslovakia from the mountain ridge that formed the border. But I only peeked for a few seconds before getting out of there, heh heh.

Some other good numbers to have in your phone to report poaching, hunting
and fishing violations to the WDFW:

If the violation is in progress call 1-800-477-6224 Monday through Friday 8
to 5.

If the violation is not in progress, call 360-902-2936.

If after hours or a holiday, call the State Patrol.

In the county which I live (Snohomish) we have a County sheriffs department.
I have met three of the deputies at various functions and situations. I have
two of their personal cell numbers in my phone list. One of deputies lives
not far from Bob Heirman park, and hikes their with his family. On the rare
occasion where I run into somebody doing something I know is against the
rules or law (for example, people with their dogs) if they respond
positively to my educational approach the phone stays in my pocket. However
very rarely I run into a jerk, and the local deputy LOVES giving $178
tickets to jerks so I call him and invite him to do so. This is rare, but I
am glad to have those numbers handy, if for emergency purposes only. Easy
thing to look up and add to your phone. 911 of course is for medical
emergencies, and I have only once called the Sheriffs department about a
crime situation, (car break in) and they responded immediately.
