Daniel Webster Wildlife Sanctuary
Hundreds of acres of grasslands,
woodlands, and wetlands await
you at Daniel Webster Wildlife
Sanctuary. For birders of all
experience levels, there are
observation blinds overlooking
a shallow wetland that attracts
herons, egrets, and shorebirds,
as well as muskrats and mink. In
early October, the sanctuary is
buzzing with activity during the
annual Daniel Webster Farm Day,
which features hayrides, games,
crafts, food, live music, and
other attractions.
