In South Thomaston, a 617-acre state wildlife management area and adjacent 132-acre Maine Coast Heritage Trust preserve combine to protect a wide expanse of wetland and grassland habitats along both sides of the saltwater estuary. Bird watchers, nature enthusiasts, hunters, and others explore Weskeag Marsh, which is home to a broad diversity of wildlife species. The Land for Maine’s Future Board allocated funds in 2018 to expand the conservation area by 206 acres.
