Transcribed from an existing knowledge-base raw capture (originally scoped to dove/woodcock only, per plan 8's 1b). VFWD's 2026-2027 Syllabus of State and Federal Hunting Regulations for Migratory Birds gives a real, statewide season (Lake Champlain Zone and Interior Vermont Zone columns both read 'Statewide'; the reciprocal-agreement clause explicitly excludes woodcock and snipe from zone-specific handling), Sept. 26-Nov. 9, 2026, daily bag 8 / possession 24. Vermont's document scopes only ducks, scaup, mergansers, coot, Canada/snow geese, brant, woodcock, and Wilson's snipe -- rail is not named anywhere in it, treated as a research gap (silent, not a confirmed negative) per plan 8's own instruction; not yet given a rail record for VT.
