Here’s Ducks Unlimited’s 2015 Pacific Flyway waterfowl forecast.

Here’s some details on Alaska:

Large numbers of Pacific Flyway waterfowl are also raised in central and northern Alberta, northeastern British Columbia, and the Northwest Territories. More than 11.6 million breeding ducks were surveyed in this region, a 16 percent increase from the previous year’s estimate and 60 percent above the long-term average. Farther west, in Alaska and the Yukon, almost 3.4 million breeding ducks were surveyed this spring—similar to last year’s estimate and slightly below the long-term average.
