[3] [6] The area of occupancy of breeding territories by pairs is variable based on regional habitat composition. The highest recorded density of pairs was in California where each pair occurred on 1.3 km 2 (0.50 sq mi), which was actually just ahead of Puerto Rico where pair occupancy averaged 1.56 km 2 (0.60 sq mi) in peak habitat.
