Wonders of estuary on display

South End Community Association hosts Chase River Estuary Park Day.

Birds, bees, fish and flowers will be the topic of discussion Saturday (April 28) , as the South End Community Association hosts Chase River Estuary Park Day.

Beginning at 10 a.m. behind the Bold Knight Restaurant at the south end of Haliburton Street, the day  features  guided nature walks, information displays and presentations and the work of Nanaimo artists. A hotdog barbecue is available by donation.

Biologist Charles Thirkill discusses salmon fry in the Chase River and helps children catch and release the young fish and  naturalists Steve Baillie and Molly Byrne share their knowledge of plants and birds in the park.
