It opens in Va 9/1 also but I’m pretty sure it’s still noon here for either the first week or the first two weeks then it goes to all day .

Idiots in Virginia made it one day only opening at noon, second day at sunrise. Game officials must have special invitations to go to a baited shoot and BBQ afterwards on opening day. Or maybe shooting resident geese (10 bird limit, 30 in possession) first and then doves in the afternoon.

Sorry late to answer. Yes. 10 bird limit. 30 in possession. September 1-25. Those at the end of the flock are mighty tender having been born this summer.
