Distribution and Habitat
The Cuban Tody is a year-round resident of portions of Cuba and islands just off the Cuban coast. Analysis of song variation suggests that the Cuban Tody is structured into two populations, corresponding to eastern and western Cuba.
Cuban Todies, like many resident Cuban bird species, are habitat generalists. They are known to live in areas including dry lowlands, evergreen forests, coastal vegetation, and near streams and rivers. Cuban Todies may be difficult to see; Vaurie reported, "Only one seen at the Cape, in dense underbrush, but several heard."
