Figure 1. Breeding and non-breeding distributions of the Northern House Wren.

For clarity, only distributions of the northernmost, aedon-type house wrens are shown (see text for distributions of two southern forms of house wrens). 'Wintering area' indicates locations where most individuals are found in winter. Smaller numbers of birds regularly winter north of this range into lower portions of what is shown as 'breeding range' (see text).
