2008 Waterfowl Count Report
New York State Waterfowl Count – 2008 January 12, 2008 Ulster County Narrative Page 1 of 8 Sixteen observers in five field parties participated in the Ulster County segment of the annual New York State Winter Waterfowl Count, recording a total of 17 species and 6,890 individuals within the county on Saturday, 12 January 2008. This represents a record high species count, exceeding last year's diversity by three species, and is just 204 individuals short of our record high total set in 2006. Field observers noted fast moving water, and essentially frozen ponds, lakes, and marshes throughout the county. Stone Ridge Pond on Mill Dam Road was the exception, and continues to contribute a large number of individuals and a few unusual species to the composite, hosting American Wigeon, Ring-necked Duck, and 1,061 individuals this year. The Hudson River, Ashokan Reservoir, lower Esopus Creek in Saugerties, and agricultural fields surrounding Wallkill prison accounted for the majority of the balance of the count. Weather conditions were quite favorable for this time of the year, especially in comparison to the rain and wide- spread fog of last year, or the sub-freezing temperatures typical of a mid-January count. A very dense fog did persist over the Hudson River early morning, requiring some minor route changes to allow for early visits to inland sites while delaying surveys of the Hudson to later in the day. Temperatures started out just below freezing, then warmed to a very comfortable mid-40's (F) by afternoon. Winds were calm for the most part, with the exception of a cold NW gale sweeping across partially frozen Ashokan Reservoir, making for very choppy waters in the lower basin and difficult viewing conditions. -

Prior to Aug. 12, 1970, nonrecording gage at same site (at different datum April 1907 to March 1918, and at present datum June 9, 1966 to Aug. 12, 1970). REMARKS.--Records good except those for estimated daily discharges, which are poor. Flow from 256 mi2 of drainage area regulated by Ashokan Reservoir since Sept. 9, 1913. Water diverted from Schoharie Creek through Shandaken Tunnel (see station 01362230) since Feb. 3, 1924, enters Esopus Creek about 12.2 mi upstream from Ashokan Reservoir. Diversion from Plattekill Creek for water supply of village of Saugerties. Slight diversion at headwaters into Cooper Lake for water supply of Kingston. Diversions upstream during summer months for irrigation purposes. Diversions for water supply of city of New York made from Ashokan Reservoir (see Reservoirs in Hudson River Basin).
