A rare permanent resident of low-elevation desertscrub in the far western portion of the region. It has been seen as far east as Havasu Canyon, and breeding was documented at RM 204 in 1994 (Sogge et al. 1998). Although actual records range only from 13 Mar to 26 Jul, the species is largely sedentary, and is probably a year-round resident (Brown et al. 1987). Data source: Gatlin, BP. 2011.
