This bird can be found throughout North America and in many areas of Central America and the Carribean. There are also vagrant colonies in Barbados and Saint Lucia as well. This species appears in subtropical and tropical forests and shrublands as well as rural gardens and degraded or former forests. The global population of this bird is estimated to be around 500,000 to 5 million individual birds.
