I monitored the nesting area occupancy and reproductive success of Golden Eagles (Aquila chrysaetos) using data collected during two standardized aerial surveys in Denali National Park and Preserve (Denali) between 1988 and 2007. In 2007, occupancy of Golden Eagle nesting areas (91%), nesting rate (73%), and success rate (78%) were slightly higher than the long-term averages of those metrics. Fledging production (n = 72) was the second highest recorded in the study. During Golden Eagle surveys, I also collected data on the nesting area occupancy and reproductive success of Gyrfalcons (Falco rusticolus). In 2007, occupancy of Gyrfalcon nesting areas (46.7%) and success rate (42.8%) were lower than most previous years....
