First Record of Blue-black Grassquit for the United States in Arizona

View through CrossRef
On 15 July 2023, I sighted a Blue-black Grassquit (Volatinia jacarina) along Ash Creek at Cluff Ranch Wildlife Area in Graham County, near Safford, Arizona. A species that ranges from Sonora, Mexico to Argentina, Blue-black Grassquit had never been documented north of the U.S.-Mexico border. This observation therefore represents a first record for the United States.
