500 Pobitora Wildlife Sanctuary (26012' N to 26015' N 9202' E to 9205' E) is an important site for migratory waterfowl of Assam. Each year during the month of October thousands of birds arrive here. The Sanctuary is situated 58km east of Guwahati City, the capital of Assam. The entire area is flat with gentle incline from east to west. Flood waters from rivers Brahmaputra and Kolong, which pass through the Sanctuary's northern and southern sides flood the entire area. The water remains for the whole year in different lakes and swamps and make Pobitora the abode of migratory as well as resident birds. The present land use pattern of the Sanctuary are: trees 13.09 per cent with the dominant species of Albizia procerea, Lagerstromea flosreganae, Salmalia malabaricum etc.; grasslands 72.25 per cent with dominant species of Erianthus ravanae, Saecharum elephantimus, Imparata cylindrica, Saecharum munja etc.; and the water body 14.61 per cent. Out of that total water body 10.61 per cent is perennial and 4 per cent is swampy. The aquatic vegetation are mainly Ipomea laptans, Learsia hexandra, Hanarthia compressa, Piltia stafistes, Lemnopanci costata, Eichhornia sp., Salvinia natans, Euryale ferox, Trapa natans etc. We carried out the waterfowl count from 19 January to 22 January 2000. Though the terrain is flat we could cover only around 80 per cent of the total area due to many unavoidable reasons. The wetlands covered in our census were Tamulidova, Haduk, Jugdol, Tuplung-Jan, Solmari, Pagladova and Dholi. In the morning hours of 19 January 2000 we covered Tamulidova, Haduk, and Jugdol beel and counted 8480 birds of 63 species. On the very next day we covered Tuplung-Jan and Solmari and counted 911 birds of 22 species, and 3154 birds of 32 species respectively. On 21 January we covered Pagladova where we counted 6288 birds of 48 species. On the very last day, on 22 January, we covered Dholi beel and counted 1694 birds of 30 species. Altogether 20,527 birds of 66 species were counted inside the Sanctuary. English Name Scientific Name Numbers
