[Maine-birds] new spot for me - Bradley Pond Farm Trails-Topsham

I’m a bit late in reporting this but on Monday (5/4) evening while soccer practice was going on I had a chance to walk the Bradley Pond Farm Trails of the Brunswick-Topsham Land Trust, a place I had never visited. It’s a beautiful spot with easy-to-walk trails. While there I enjoyed hearing and seeing Blue-headed Vireos, Black-throated Green Warblers (there are some nice old hemlock groves), Northern Waterthrush, Black-and-white Warblers, Palm Warblers, Pine Warblers and really loud American Toads. There is a wonderful overlook of an extensive marsh on Bradley Pond that looks interesting and there were lots of Pileated Woodpecker workings (heard them too). The spot is easily accessible off of 201 near the Topsham-Bowdoin town line.
