'''Habitat:''' North America; found mostly west of the Rockies from Alaska to Mexico. Their range varies from Mexico in the winter to as far north as Alaska, throughout the western U.S. and Canada. Northern birds migrate to the southern parts of the range; southern birds are often permanent residents. Some birds may move to lower elevations in winter. They inhabit open rangelands, meadows, generally at elevations above 5,000 feet. Found in agricultural areas and prairie-forest edge with groves of trees, short grass, and few shrubs. It prefers more open habitats than the other bluebirds and can be found in colder habitats in winter. | '''Habitat:''' North America; found mostly west of the Rockies from Alaska to Mexico.
