I may indeed be wrong, but if so I'd appreciate some cites.

No regulations, just a note on the sectional saying that they request
pilots to avoid flight below 1500 feet for wildlife.

They have a protected area along the Oregon coast and CFIs have mentioned
that the Coast Guard (or somebody) will report you if they catch you.

As for this particular location, I haven't determined what sort of zone it's
in yet but even if it's not hunting season I'll still be keeping an eye out
for wildlife. Keepin' the fowl out of the cowl.

If there are geese there, hopefully I'll scare the bejesus out of them.
It'll be payback for those squadrons that regularly appear on short final at
Troutdale. (And for what they did to the inside of my boat. Never leaved
a boat tied off in Oregon with an unsecured bag of pretzels on the seat!)

Guys out of Scappoose have been doing aerobatics over the Sauvie Island
wildlife refuge for years, so maybe I'll try to make a phone call over there
and see what they know about any local rules.
