Stellar Jay scupture by Cohn/Stone

Visitors are usually delighted to observe the bushy tailed Western Gray Squirrel throughout Cambria. Like airborne acrobats they travel long distances from tree to tree and from phone and power lines. Time on the ground is spent foraging mainly on pine seeds and acorns. Visitors are discouraged from feeding bolder squirrels along Moonstone Beach Drive and other State Park habitats.
