Abstract

We provide the results of avifaunal inventories in Juárez Municipality, a poorly known part of the relatively under-birded Mexican state of Chihuahua. Patterns observed are highly consistent with published literature on the avifauna of westernmost Texas. Our findings modify the status of some species, including the addition of rare migrants (Grace’s Warbler and Zone-tailed Hawk), first records for Chihuahua (Downy Woodpecker, Blue-headed Vireo, Pine Warbler, and Rose-breasted Grosbeak), range expansions (Neotropic Cormorant, Eurasian Collared-Dove, American Crow), and changes of seasonal status (Great Blue Heron, Vermilion Flycatcher, and Cassin’s Kingbird).
