From July 1 throughout August, there’s a variety of morning, evening and moonlight paddle trips. Prices range from $30 to $40. All participants must know how to swim. Mass Audubon provides everything you need—canoes, paddles, PFDs, binoculars, and experienced guides!

Watch for swallows, herons, ducks, muskrats, and signs of beavers along the scenic and meandering Housatonic River (Lenox, MA). Explore the coves and marshes of Upper and Lower Goose Ponds in search of eagles, herons, and kingfishers (Tyringham, MA). Or listen for owls, loons, and other wildlife on a moonlit paddle of Buckley Dunton Lake at October Mountain State Forest in (Becket, MA)
