I'm not the downvoter, but this japanese.SE is not a translation service, so people like it when you give it a shot. Suggested reading: sanabo.com/kazoekata/ct_ka/ki/kisetsu– virmaiorOct 6, 2015 at 0:42

1Valid question! I'm sure there is a very japanese-y answer, but I'm unaware of one myself. You could say the third season 第三季節 (dai san ki setsu)– sovaOct 6, 2015 at 2:35

You show zero effort, so why should the downvoter show more? Besides, there is no need for a counter to say what you wanted.– macrafOct 6, 2015 at 2:50

Seasons can be a little tricky because they mean different things.
When talking about the four astronomical/meteorological seasons as in your example, it is probably most natural to use a generic counter: 3つ目の季節は秋です.
Ways of counting other seasons:
- 第3シーズン、3シーズン目 (For sports, orchestras, theatre, TV shows, business seasons)
- 第3季、3季目 (For sports, business seasons)
- 第3期、3期目 (Generic counter for periods of time, except not used to count the four astronomical/meteorological seasons.)

期 is also used for anime "seasons", basically sets of 13 episodes or thereabouts.– LiveMyndAug 30, 2016 at 8:55
