A fairly common summer resident in mainstem and tributary riparian habitats, particularly from RM 190 to upper Lake Mead. It is seen uncommonly upstream to above Lees Ferry, but there are no breeding records above the Little Colorado River (RM 61) (LaRue in prep). Prior to 1974, Hooded Oriole had never been seen in the region (Brown et al. 1985) but it has rapidly expanded its range along the river corridor. Data source: Gatlin, BP. 2011.
