    Different areas have different limits but the above is when game bird season starts.

    Swans vary by region and the populations are fairly localised to big lakes but at Ellesmere it's 5 per day from may to sep. The better hunting is in august and september when they fly into flooded paddocks. It's basically the same as goose hunting except lots easier.
