Bird Migration MapBird Migration Map

Migration

Resident to medium-distance migrant. Juncos that breed in Canada and Alaska migrate to the southern United states in winter. Some populations in the Rocky Mountains are only short-distance migrants, and some individuals in the West and in the Appalachian Mountains of the East don’t migrate at all.

From Chapter 1: The Study of Birds

Distribution and Occurrence

Range maps, like this one for the Dark-eyed Junco from the All About Birds website, tell you where a species is likely to occur at different times of the year.

The range maps in your field guide will be your first reference for learning where and when birds are present—their geographic distribution and seasonal occurrence. A range map typically uses color to indicate a bird’s winter range, its summer or breeding range, or, for a bird that doesn’t migrate, its year-round range.

From Chapter 3: Equipment | Lenses – Focal length comparisons of images shot from a distance of 30 ft.
