Notes
(Parkesia noveboracensis) Northern Waterthrush is a rare spring and fall migrant at open water throughout the region. It is most often seen along the Colorado River, but there are also records from tanks and sewage lagoons on the South Rim. An old record from 3 Mar along the river is intriguing. There are no published details, but the extremely early date raises the possibility that this may have been a Louisiana Waterthrush, which has not been recorded in the region but winters in Arizona more regularly than Northern Waterthrush. Data source: Gatlin, BP. 2011. Annotated Checklist of the Birds of the Grand Canyon Region. 3rd edition.
