Wekiwa Springs State Park is one of the best sites for Red-headed Woodpecker. It is also home to many longleaf pine specialties like Brown-headed Nuthatch and Bachman's Sparrow. Prevatt Lake near the Youth Camp can sometimes have waterfowl in the winter. In the evening, this place has Common Nighthawk and Chuck-will's-widow in the spring and summer. In winter evenings, the area by Sand Lake has American Woodcock.
