PEMBROKE, Maine - A curious Hawk came out of nowhere at Reversing Falls Park (a municipal nature park) in Pembroke, Maine. Exploring in our Jeep Wrangler we followed the Leighton Point Road to Mahar Point. The falls are at the northern point of a narrows separating Dennys Bay from Cobscook Bay in far eastern Maine. We found deer, seals, hawks and much more on our day trip.
The narrows are subject to a reversal of current twice a day, due to the area's unusually high tides in the Bay of Fundy region. The park is also well suited for wildlife viewing as many migratory birds pass through this park.
The area in the park vicinity is also archaeologically sensitive, as the site of Native American settlements in the area's prehistory.
Sunday afternoon in Eastport, Maine
Eastport, Maine is about 45 mins / 30 miles from my home. It makes for a nice little drive. We love being Tourist in our own Home Area. People tend to overlook the things like this in their own backyard. We embrace it. The Food was great and the steamers were as fresh as you can get. The Eastport Chowder House, Rosie's Hot dogs, and The new Bakery are all easily recommendable.
