Behavior
Introduction
Little information. Oaxaca Sparrows forage on and near the ground (Howell and Webb 1995, Rising 2011).
Oaxaca Sparrow usually forages within vegetative cover, where it often is difficult to see, but sings a fairly conspicuous perch (Howell and Webb 1995; see also Habitat).
Territoriality
Sexual Behavior
Undescribed; Oaxaca Sparrow presumably is at least socially monogamous.
Social and interspecific behavior
Oaxaca Sparrow presumably is solitary or in pairs when breeding. In winter, may form flocks of at least 10 individuals, which associate loosely with other species of sparrows (Howell and Webb 1995).
