      • Birch Island is an island and census-designated place (CDP) in the town of Harpswell, Maine, United States. It is part of the Portland–South Portland–Biddeford, Maine Metropolitan Statistical Area.
      The 43-acre (17 ha) island is believed to be one of Casco Bay's first settlements. Indigenous people traveled along the Androscoggin River to establish summer fishing camps on nearby islands.
