NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – Early hunting season for wood ducks and teal begins this week.
According to the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency, the season runs from Saturday to Sept. 18 with a daily bag limit of four, not to exceed two wood ducks.
Hunters must have a valid state hunting license in their possession as well as a Tennessee Migratory Bird Permit.
Hunters aged 16 and older also must have a Federal Duck Stamp.
The early hunting season for Canada geese began Sept. 1. It continues through Sept. 15 with a daily bag limit of five.
More information on Tennessee’s waterfowl season can be found on the TWRA website at http://www.tnwildlife.org under the “for hunters” section.
Information on the 2013-14 late waterfowl seasons will be available in late September.
Exposing the Big Game 
If it won’t stop, I’ll just keep hoping for hunting “accidents”. (Or is it hunting “karma”?)
These poor birds migrate up and down the coast being shot at every time they stop to eat or rest. Its a disgrace
Great comments! Yes, a few more hunting accidents are in order. As Louise mentions, these lovely birds travel so far, looking for food, shelter and rest. And what awaits them? Guns, and watching their mates or young die at the hands of barbaric humans.
