Resident in the lower Rio Grande Valley.  This bird was observed at Mitchell Lake in the fall of 1997.  The following spring, an individual was caught in a mist net and banded.  The fall sighting and the spring banding were in the same area-along the road near the marsh on the western edge of the west polder.
