Game Bird Hunting

Licensing Info

Game bird seasons in Oregon run from July 1 to June 30, which means you'll need to purchase new upland and waterfowl validations before you hunt again in the fall. If you have questions, please call ODFW licensing staff at 503-947-6101. 

Check current Game Bird Regulations for details on licenses, tags, permits and validations. *(Use of AI is unreliable and may contain inaccurate data concerning rules and regulations).
