Hello all, Please note that all of New York State west of route 81 and south of Lake Ontario is in the western zone for waterfowl hunting. The zones listed in the DEC table are just for New York State. I hope this reduces some of the confusion.

This reminds me that I had also checked seasons a while back when thinking about this year's upcoming CBC. I saw the same and then just thought I had been wrong. What's the story anyone? Linda.

Doesn't the table show just snow goose and Canada goose hunting season now, with ducks having ended Dec 15? If so, why are hunters all tucking in at the end of the Lake? And why is it so concentrated right now, since Snow Geese have been legal since Oct 1? This shows duck hunting as extending Oct-Dec15? I am confused. On Dec 30, 2013, at 9:19 AM, Christopher T.

No person shall kill or cripple any migratory game bird pursuant to this section without making a reasonable effort to retrieve the bird, and retain it in his actual custody, at the place where taken or between that place and either: (1) his automobile or principal means of land transportation; (2) his personal abode or temporary or transient place of lodging; (3) a migratory bird preservation facility; (4) a post office; or (5) a common carrier facility. • So seeing any hunter leaving dead birds warrants a call to the DEC environmental conservation officer at the following: TIPP DEC is a 24-hour telephone hotline that is also referred to as Turn in Poachers and Polluters. It is answered by live dispatchers. The TIPP phone number is1-800-TIPP DEC (1-800-847-7332). Callers may request to file a complaint anonymously. I have also called 911 and asked for the DEC officers but would rather leave that number for human emergencies. Hope for good, safe hunters and keep your head down until January 13th.
