waterfowl counts table

About the Waterfowl Counts Table

Our Waterfowl Counts table is a unique, patent-pending application designed to make staying up-to-date on the waterfowl counts nearest to you a breeze!

To use the waterfowl counts application, input a city and state in an area you’d like to see recent migration data and the application will retrieve the most recent duck counts (and goose counts where applicable) nearest that area! 

Our database is updated once daily from October through January, and on a regular basis in the off-season, so you can be sure that the most recent and up-to-date waterfowl counts and migration data is displayed.

States with migration data currently in the Migration Station database are: South Dakota, Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana from the Mississippi and Central Flyways, California, Nevada, and Oregon from the Pacific Flyway and Maryland and Delaware from the Atlantic Flyway.

If you have questions about data coverage or why certain states have no data, please view the FAQ section of our contact. page, or feel free to contact us.
