Greens are not legal to shoot. Nor are cormorants. Neither are considered ducks, but are rather waterfowl.

A harlequin is about the only duck I could think of but chances of ever seeing one in TN are slim to none.
 
Well I had to ask in the TWRA forum.



"I'm not aware of any DUCKS that you would see in TN that are off limits.

There are a wide variety of water birds that you see swimming around in TN waters that are illegal to shoot."


So there ya go, if it walks like a duck & sounds like a duck, kill it. :)

Well a guy that took me to reelfoot thought he killed "That federally protected" duck. I couldn't find anything on it thus reasons I posted here. Said it was a brown duckbut idk my ducks having only been 6 times and never shot a duck yet
 
Not this year. But there have been seasons in recent memory where canvasbacks were protected. And I can remember seasons in which you could only kill pintails within certain dates. They will make special regulations for certain species at times if hatch numbers are too low.

I noticed this year they dropped the pintail back down to 1 per day but left the canvas backs at 2.
