Evening
Grosbeak Range Map
The Evening Grosbeak breeds from southwestern and
north-central British Columbia to Nova Scotia and
south, in the mountains, to central California,
west-central and eastern Nevada, southeastern
Arizona, southern New Mexico, the Mexican
highlands, and, east of the Rocky Mountains, to
Minnesota, Michigan, and Massachusetts. It
winters throughout the breeding range
sporadically south to southern California,
southern Arizona, the Gulf Coast, and central
Florida. The Evening Grosbeak favors coniferous
forests (primarily spruce and fir), throughout
most of its range, often extending into areas
where trees are quite sparse and into mixed
forests. In winter, it forms large flocks and may
move downslope to oak or pine-oak habitats,
parks, and around towns.
