Their breeding range spreads across almost the entirety of Canada, Alaska and, to a more variable degree, across the western mountains and northern parts of the United States. As their name indicates, the species occurs mostly as a breeder in open conifer forests. Northern pine forests supports the majority of the species breeding population. This study was written by biologist Dorothy Mierow (1921-2000), a native of Colorado Springs, Colorado, as part of her Master's thesis at the University of Pittsburgh. Mierow graduated from Carleton College in 1942, and held master's degrees in both biology and geography. In 1962 she came to Nepal with the first Peace Corps group.
