Northern Bobwhite Range Map
The Northern Bobwhite is a year-round resident from southeastern Wyoming and central South Dakota to southern Ontario, southern New Hampshire and southern Maine, south through the central and eastern United States to Florida and southern Arizona into Mexico; introduced and established in western North America. The Northern Bobwhite inhabits open pastures, meadows with abundant weedy growth, and cultivated or fallow agricultural lands with hedgerows and dense brush, near open woodlands; avoids deep woods. In the Southwest, it is found in brushy canyons and hillsides or on dry grasslands with scattered mesquite and cactus. The Northern Bobwhite prefers to winter in coveys (within several miles of breeding areas) in areas where dense cover of brushy thickets, hedgerows or brush piles provide protection and abundant food resources.
