Field Trip: Salt Bay Farm, Damariscotta

Fall migration will be in full swing, and we’ll say “au revoir” to warblers stopping over on their long journey south. Join us as we explore this preserve’s varied habitats looking for sparrows, pipits, finches, and waterfowl. We might even get lucky and find some late stragglers in need of extra motivation to fly south! On the right day, this hotspot can yield over 50 species even in fall (see, for example, this eBird checklist).

Directions: We’ll meet in the preserve parking lot located at 110 Belvedere Rd, Damariscotta, ME 04543. This property has a good amount of parking available, but please consider carpooling if possible.

All are welcome! This trip will be led by Justin Guider and Jeff Cherry. Please register for this trip by email (midcoastfieldtrips at maineaudubon.org) with your name and phone number. Registering gives us an idea of how many people will be attending and a way to contact you if we need to cancel or reschedule.
