Season: April 15 to June 30: one or two broods. Range of Chondestes grammacus.âNorth America from the Pacific Coast east, regularly to Ohio and Tennessee, casually to the Atlantic seaboard, north to central British Columbia and Saskatchewan, south over the Mexican plateau and, in winter, through Lower California and southern Mexico to Guatemala. Range of C. g. strigatus.âAs above, save that eastern boundary roughly coin- cides with that of the Great Plains. Distribution in California.âResident throughout the State in the Upper Sonoran life zone, but chiefly in the interior valleys west of the Sierras; found sparingly in Lower Transition (San Jacinto Mountains, alt. 6300, June 3, 1913; Humboldt County, June 14, 1916), and descending casually within the upper limits of Lower Sonoran (Palm Springs, May 27, 1913; Mohave Desert, near Palmdale, May 16, 1919; Indian Wells, Inyo County, May 19, 1919). Seasonal redistribution imper- fectly made out; local population is possibly stationary, but entire State is lightly swept by northern migrants which reinforce local populations, or deploy over deserts.
