Tips for Birding

Reed's Marsh in Orford is a small area at the end of a short road down from NH-10 south of the town. You can bring a kayak if you want to see more. 

After visiting Reeds Marsh you can drive north carefully scanning the often-flooded fields to the west and then turn into the Orford Boat Launch area.

Reeds Marsh Waterfowl Management Area is an open pond and marshland adjacent to the Connecticut River. A small, 5-acre old field, provides habitat diversity.

This property supports migratory and breeding of waterfowl, marsh wrens, blue heron, red fox, beaver, mink, and muskrat.

From the center of Orford, at the intersection of NH-10 and NH-25, take NH-10 south. In one mile, on the right hand side, an access road leads to a small parking area for cartop boat access.
