Naturalists will descend on South Delta next week.

The Delta Naturalists' Society is hosting, for the first time ever, the B.C. Nature Weekend and Fall General Meeting from Sept. 29 to Oct. 2. It's not open to the public.

The event, with a Nature on the Move theme, will feature field trips as well as talks and is designed to showcase the Fraser River estuary and the Boundary Bay ecosystem.

B.C. Nature members from around the province will be attending, said Anne Murray, a Delta Naturalists member and registrar for the fall general meeting.

"People are coming from all over," she said.

About 160 were registered as of last week.

Delta Naturalists' Society president Tom Bearss said the group is excited to host the event.
