Unfortunately all Canada geese in the state of NH are considered migratory as they do not winter here.

I do not know about a percentage off the taxes, but you can buy a NH Small game hunting license, a NH state migratory water fowl stamp and a federal duck stamp and hunt them anyway and thus reducing the population by 14 birds total through the course of the two seasons, per person. It would be a two birds with one stone thing, reduce the Canada geese population and help fund the deficit that the NH Fish and Game is experiencing.
