Taxonomic composition, spatial and temporal distribution of aquatic birds in oxidation lagoons (LO)of La Paz city in south Baja California, Mexico, were determined during 24 censuses realized in two-weekintervals (April/98-March/99). There are five lagoons of 5 Ha each and 17 ha of terrains constantly flooded thatserve as feeding areas for cattle and birds. One hundred twenty three species were observed, 75 of which wereaquatic birds. A total of 46 041 observations were made (average 1 918 birds/census). Richness and abundanceof aquatic birds were influenced mainly by migration of anatids and sandpipers. The first group had the greatestabundance due to its affinity towards fresh water bodies. The terrains were the favorite sites of dabblingducks (Anas) and sandpipers. in contrast, two of the most abundant species (Oxyura jamaicensis, 12.5 % of allspecies, and Fulica americana, 8.8 %) restricted their presence to the oxidation lagoons. LO presented a birdstructure of its own and atypical, according to the dryness of the region. Rev. Biol. Trop. 55 (2): 617-626.
