The Scarlet Tanager is found throughout forested areas from Nova Scotia to north of the Great Lakes, as far as western Saskatchewan, down into southern Oklahoma, east to South Carolina and the Atlantic coast. Being neotropical, the tanager spends its winter months in South America and it has been seen as a migrant in Cuba.
