Whip-poor-will Range Map
The Whip-poor-will breeds from north-central Saskatchewan and southern Manitoba to southern Quebec and Nova Scotia, south to eastern Kansas, northeastern Texas, and northern Louisiana across to central Georgia; and from southern California, southern Nevada, central Arizona, and extreme western Texas south to Mexico. It winters from southern Texas, the Gulf Coast, and east-central South Carolina south to Central America. In the East, the Whip-poor-will prefers open hardwood or mixed woodlands of pine, oak and beech, particularly younger stands in fairly dry habitats. It also favors stands with scattered clearings. In the Southwest, the Whip-poor-will frequents densely wooded slopes of oak and pine in canyons and mountains.
