Davis Mountains State Park
State Park Information
State Park Overview
Nature of the Area
Extremes of altitude averaging 1-mile high produce both plains grasslands and pinyon juniper-oak woodlands. Montezuma quail, usually farther west -re regularly observed in the park. Scattered stands of ponderosa and the more common pinyon pine, mixed with oak and juniper, cover higher elevations. During wet years, the park abounds in wildflowers. Emory and gray oak and one-seed juniper are the most common trees in the park. Emory oak is predominant along Keesey Creek. Scarlet bouvardia, little-leaf leadtree, trompillo, evergreen sumac, fragrant sumac -pache plum, little walnut, treecholla, Torrey yucca, catclaw acacia and
agarito are conspicuous shrubs, some of which flower abundantly.
The interpretive center overlooks the wildlife watering station where scrub jays, white-wing doves, curve-billed thrashers and
rock squirrels are among the most common wildlife seen.
