Birds of Anza-Borrego
More
than 300 species of birds have been recorded in the Anza-Borrego region.
Many of these birds, like the Swainson's Hawk, are here only briefly each year,
during their seasonal migration. But Anza-Borrego's wide range of
elevations, from close to sea level in the east to 6,200 feet in the mountain
peaks, has created a great diversity of habitat. The photo gallery
does not include all of these species, but it does show many of the more common
ones, along with the wide variety of birds that live here.
