Migration
Status Code:
|
Resident |
overwinters
regularly in area |
Occasional
Resident |
some
members of the species may overwinter in years of
very high food supplies |
Young
Disperse |
adults
are resident, but young usually move out of the
general area |
Complete
Migrant |
virtually
all members of the species leave their breeding
range and Alaska during the nonbreeding season |
Partial
Migrant |
seasonal
movements away from a breeding range by some, but
not all, members of a species with overlap between
breeding and nonbreeding ranges |
Irruptive
Migrant |
migrations
that are not seasonally or geographically predictable
irruptions may occur in one year but not again for
many years
distances and numbers of individuals involved are
less predictable than for partial or complete migrants

Checklist
Information:
Park visitors can use this checklist to
know what birds they can expect to see at different
seasons and in different habitats in Denali. The
National Park Service Checklist of Birds of Denali
provides a general overview of the relative seasonal
abundance, migration status, and general habitat
of the 165 species of birds thus far recorded
at Denali National Park and Preserve, Alaska.
National Park Service scientists maintain a contemporary
checklist to reflect results of ongoing bird studies
in all portions of Denali.
The National Park Service Checklist of Birds
in Denali was derived from the checklist of Denali's
birds developed by Ken Kertell and Doug Murphy
in 1985, and updated and revised by Alan Seegert
in 1998. This checklist of Denali's birds by Kertell,
Murphy and Seegert is available for purchase through
the Alaska
Natural History Association.
The abundance and distribution of many of
the birds found in Denali often cycle with seasonal
food resources. Therefore, this checklist may
not accurately reflect abundance in all years.
Northern hawk owls, short-eared owls, white-winged
crossbills, and common redpolls may be common
or abundant in one year and then nearly absent
in others. Golden eagles usually migrate out of
the area in fall, but some individuals may overwinter
when food resources (snowshoe hare) are abundant.
Phylogenetic sequence and English and scientific
names follow The A.O.U. Checklist of North America
Birds (Sixth ed., 1983, and supplements 35 (1985),
36 (1987), and 37 (1989).
We gather new data on Denali's birds every
year. Please report any new sightings to Denali
National Park and Preserve personnel.
