2020 Late Goose Season Opener on Valentine's Day

Late Season Opening Day / Valentine's Day Harvest
I don't recall the late goose season opener ever falling on Valentine's Day before. In fact, some years the late goose season was already closed before mid-February. The dates for the 2020 late goose season run from Feb. 14 all the way until February 29 - giving late season waterfowlers an extra day to hunt due to the leap year! Shooting times are 1/2-hour before sunrise until sunset and the daily bag limit is five geese per hunter. The tale of my hunt is that a group of eight Canada geese came to the pond I was hunting and circled twice before I was able to make a clean kill shot and harvest two of the birds. One fell into the water with a splash and one fell onto land and made a THUD.
