"Savannah Sparrow," Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. This passerine bird breeds in Alaska, Canada, northern, central and Pacific coastal United States, Mexico and Guatemala. The Pacific and Mexican breeders are resident, but other populations are migratory, wintering from the southern United States across Central America and the Caribbean to northern South America. It is a very rare vagrant to western Europe. The Savannah sparrow is considered a threatened species by the IUCN.
