This is a conservation control season to deal with residents. Limits are not like this during regular season. Possession limits are also waived That is indeed a heathen chessie. Both good dogs, I am not able to drag mine (black lab) along on this trip. Just happy to be here.

I am surprised Va limit is so low, is it statewide or just near the coast? Just happy to be here.

They have a special 1/2 inch tube cemented to a regular band and these measure the daylight time and date so they know where they are in migration, some of these bands have lasted 4 years when recovered. Unfortunately some of these banding programs have been cancelled by the current US administration
