Migration

Virtually the entire Veery population migrates from breeding grounds in Canada and the northern U.S., across the Gulf of Mexico, through the Yucatán Peninsula and Central America, to wintering grounds in South America.

Map data for South American distribution provided by Robert S. Ridgley, remaining distributional data are provided by NatureServe in collaboration with Robert Ridgely, James Zook, The Nature Conservancy - Migratory Bird Program, Conservation International - CABS, World Wildlife Fund - US, and Environment Canada - WILDSPACE.
