Here in Virginia we have one. June 4 through 18, 2022. It's a great time to hunt. There's full green foliage, it's usually not brutally hot yet, and it's before the warbles get bad.
Your state have a spring season?

Nope, only fall/winter here. It sucks because most of the public land worth half a rip for squirrel is closed to small game hunting during archery deer season, which overlaps about 75% of the open squirrel season.

Spring season is a blast. Lots of young, tasty squirrels.

Find a den tree or something close to mulberry tree and kill away.
The last time that bear ate a lawyer he had the runs for 33 days!

Did someone say "show me squirrels?" I'm an Ozarker.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

Not one here in PA or WV where I hunt. It’s a shame because that’s my favorite hunting!

Yeah, we have one but, I'm not sure when it is this year.
Why do I have to press 1, for English?

Ours is only about a month before deer season and one after Christmas.
They might offer one, if they can figure a way to write the regs to trip
up folks and then fine them. Or, sell a "Spring Small Game Tag".

We have one. It opens after turkey season and is open till the end of February. Limit 12. I never hunt in the spring or summer because I would rather fish and the ticks you get in the woods when it is hot.

I live in Montana, which as far as I know has never had any closed season for squirrels--or any limit. We have more than once species, including fox squirrels, which were original native only to the southeastern quarter of the state. Same deal with cottontail rabbits, or snowshoe hares.
This is because not many hunters here bother with hunting small, edible mammals, due to so many big game animals. Apparently many believe anything smaller than a pronghorn is "too small to bother with."(An actual quote.)

A dear friend once described Mule deer that thrived in the coolies on her parents grain farm as big rabbits.
Jack rabbits mostly thereabouts, she didn’t understand my fascination.

No, but we have a pretty generous season running from August to the last day of February. Turkey season is mid-March to mid-May. Something is open to hunt here every month except June and July. January and February are my favorite times to hunt them. Big game seasons are over and I have the woods to myself. Of course I don't take killing them too seriously. It's just a good time to wander around in the woods.
Most people don't really want the truth.
They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.

Kansas is June through February.
Missouri, as noted above, is 5-28 to 2-15 this year.
So not so much as a spring season, but really it’s only closed during the spring.

Ky is May 21-June 17. Don't often hunt them on spring, but when I have, it's been really good hunting! Last time I did was 2017, but thinking I'll go this spring.
