Biodiversity Walk at Roberts Bank

Join us on October 18th, 2026 at 9:30am (Pacific Time) in Delta for a biodiversity walk to learn about the wildlife near Roberts Bank.

It’s been an exhausting few months between pipeline announcements and environmental protection rollbacks. We want to offer this land-based learning experience to reconnect with nature and community, and help ground people in the real places we’re trying to protect. Making new connections with your community members is fun, too!

This biodiversity walk will be near the likely future site of Roberts Bank Terminal 2 and the new West Coast Pipeline, two projects that GSA is actively fighting against to protect the Salish Sea.

We’ll be there to talk about these projects, while an experienced birder from Delta Naturalists Society will lead the walk, so bring your binoculars, cameras, and bird-ID books!

If you want to reconnect with nature, find fresh motivation and inspiration during these troubling times, and learn how to protect the Salish Sea from marine mammal and bird advocates, we can’t wait to see you there!

Event Details:

We will meet in Delta at 9:30 am at 3306 Tsawwassen Drive North. The biodiversity walk is expected to last 2 – 3 hours, depending on weather conditions and tides. Afterwards, there is an open invitation for everyone to meet at the Douglas J. Husband Discovery Centre in Ladner for the “Welcoming Back the Birds” event held by the City of Delta, where Delta Naturalists Society has a display table. This will be a chance to celebrate the birds returning to Delta with themed activities for all the family, bird films, and nature booths from 1:30pm – 4pm.
