Daniel Webster Wildlife Sanctuary, Protected wildlife area in Marshfield, Massachusetts.
The Daniel Webster Wildlife Sanctuary extends across 576 acres, featuring grasslands, woodlands, wetlands, and a network of trails along the Green Harbor River.
Massachusetts Audubon Society purchased this former agricultural estate in 1984, which belonged to statesman Daniel Webster from 1832 to 1852.
The sanctuary maintains purple martin nesting gourds near Webster Pond, supporting a local colony of these migratory birds through dedicated conservation efforts.
Visitors can explore 3.5 miles of trails daily from sunrise to sunset, including 0.6 miles of paths designed for universal accessibility.
The property contains four wildlife observation blinds positioned throughout different habitats, allowing visitors to watch native animals without disturbing them.
