Birds of Lake Livingston State Park
TEXAS PARKS AND WILDLIFE BIRDS OF LAKE LIVINGSTON S T A T E P A R K A FIELD CHECKLIST 2018 The Lake Livingston Environment Lake Livingston is a large artificial reservoir on the Trinity River in deep east Texas. It is bounded by Polk, San Jacinto, Trinity, and Walker counties and is a centerpiece of that fabled wild land know colloquially as the Big Thicket. This Army Corps of Engineers project was designed for recreational use and as a holding site for the city of Houston’s water supply. Lake Livingston now provides 87% of Houston’s water supply and over 2.3 million people depend on Lake Livingston for their water. Such impoundments inundate many acres of habitat vital to a variety of plants and animals, but also provide many niches previously unavailable in the area. Birds are chief among the animals able to take advantage of such new niches due to their mobility. A large lake, such as the 90,000-acre Lake Livingston, is a convenient migration stopover for many waterfowl and shorebird species and a winter refuge for others. The lake is a dramatic example of how bird populations are affected by changes in habitat. Prior to its damming the Trinity River was little more than an aerial highway for a few cormorants, ducks, and shorebirds. However, by the late 1970s the new lake had become headquarters for the world’s largest concentration of Double-breasted Cormorants as well as thousands of ducks and gulls. At times, hidden among the thousands of Bonaparte’s and Ring-Billed Gulls, are a host of rarities.
