News of the Conservation Commission meeting June 1 and 2, 2005... Amongst other business, the Commission approved early migratory game bird hunting seasons, contingent upon approval of federal season frameworks. Season dates are: Mourning Dove, Eurasian Collard Dove and White-winged Dove: Sept. 1 through Nov. 9 (70 days); limits--12 in the aggregate daily, 24 in possession. Sora and Virginia Rails: Sept. 1 through Nov. 9 (70 days); limits--25 in the aggregate daily or in possession. How many people have ever even seen one in Missouri? I've been lucky enough to see one in Clarence, Missouri at the residence of Jenny Webb. Others have seen them in various locations around the state. This information is provided by me to the listserv members because it strikes me as curious that there would even be a season on White-winged Dove in Missouri. Stay Cool!!! It's warming up again...
