An accidental visitor, and is easily the most astonishing bird to be discovered in the Grand Canyon region. This primarily Eurasian species is rare in western Alaska, casual in California where there are 27 records (Heindel et al. 2008), and accidental anywhere farther inland where there are very few records for the rest of the continent. One was photographed at the South Rim Sewage Lagoons from 6-11 Oct 1985 (Connie Rudd). This is the only time the species has been recorded in the state of Arizona. Data source: Gatlin, BP. 2011.
