The fall record is a single bird seen at Lee’s Ferry on 27 and 31 Oct 1996 (Charles T. LaRue). The only other record is of a bird whose origins are unknown: a dead Grasshopper Sparrow found in Grand Canyon Village on 28 Jun 1941 (Mark Wisner) may have been carried into the park on a car radiator (Brown et al. 1985).
