Race inornatus strongly migratory, but nominate fairly sedentary around Gulf of Mexico and in Caribbean. Race inornatus moves in three main directions: almost due E to Atlantic coast of New York and New England; SE & S to Atlantic and Gulf of coasts, with some moving into Caribbean and reaching Surinam; fairly small numbers migrate SW to Pacific coast, from Oregon to N Peru, scarcely S to N Chile; regular migrant to Galapagos in small numbers. Nominate race moves S down Atlantic coast into Caribbean and to N South America, where occurs mainly in NC Brazil and Surinam.   (del Hoyo J, Elliott A, Sargatal J (eds), 1996)
