There is no shortage of activities and events at the Scarborough marsh this summer, whether you love wildlife watching, group walks or volunteering. The Scarborough Marsh Audubon Center hosts early morning bird walks every Wednesday at 8 a.m. all season. On the same day, you can return to the marsh from 10:30 a.m. to noon for the Family Nature Walk: Mummichugs and Marsh Muck from June 17 to Aug. 26. Or you can take another bird walk with Scarborough Land Trust volunteer and expert birder Brad Woodward on the Eastern Trail. The free event takes place from 8 to 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, Aug. 22. The Eastern Trail Alliance hosts a full moon walk in the marsh on a monthly basis, and the next one takes place 7:45-9:15 p.m. on Tuesday, July 28. Join the Scarborough Land Trust in celebrating the marsh with a full day of activities on Marsh Day, Aug. 15, from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
