| Cuyamaca Rancho State Park - Site # 64 | |||
| Background: | Many habitats here are designated wilderness areas, and home to mule deer, raccoons, squirrels, and coyotes. Cuyamaca Lake draws cormorants, canvasbacks and brown pelicans. Abundant birds of prey include red shouldered hawks, golden eagles in the summer, and wintering bald eagles. Some of the state's largest canyon live oaks shelter acorn and white-headed woodpeckers, four types of pines are populated by Steller's jays, white-breasted nuthatches, and many migratory songbirds. Nights here belong to bats, badgers, bobcats, and mountain lions. | ||
