A quiet and peaceful walk through the Spear Farm Estuary Preserve is a Maine birder's dream. With a manmade freshwater pond as the backdrop to a tidal river and saltmarsh, the wildlife thrives here. Flat, easy, and well-groomed paths are the majority of the 1.6 miles of trail networks with interpretive signs along the way. Between the marsh grass, tall oak, and pine trees, birds of all sorts are to be spotted nesting and feeding throughout the day.
