Western Meadowlark (Sturnella neglecta)
The Western Meadowlark is one of the most widely distributed open-country species in the arid desert country of eastern Oregon. It can be found in the state year-round, although most birds in eastern Oregon migrate out of the state in winter. It breeds in scattered locations along the coast, in western Oregon Valleys, and throughout desert shrub-steppe, grasslands, and agricultural areas of eastern Oregon. In western Oregon, it is most common as a breeding species in the Rogue Valley. Wintering populations are generally higher than breeding populations.
