The possession limit is designed to restrict the number of birds taken by any hunter.
Possession limit on the first day of a season is the daily bag limit.
I can not kill another duck on day 3 of a hunt away from home if I have 12 birds in my "possession" (6 bird daily limit). The hunt is over at 12 birds in possession.
Birds are in possession until they are "processed" at my permanent address.
States sell three day licenses, the possession limit of two days bag limit is a federal law.
