Burke Mountain Naturalists (BMN) was formed in 1989 by local residents interested in enjoying nature, encouraging nature awareness, and conserving local green spaces.
We are a club based in Coquitlam, BC, with a focus on the enjoyment and awareness of nature through activities and education.
Whether you are starting your exploration of nature in the Tri-Cities area (Port Moody, Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam) or are an experienced naturalist, we invite you to join us. Meet people who share your interests such as hiking, walking, birding, nature appreciation, and conservation.
Come as a guest and drop in to one of our monthly meetings, or participate in an scheduled activity,to learn more about us.
The Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Burke Mountain Naturalists will be held on Thursday December 10th, 7:30 – 8:30 pm, via Zoom. The AGM portion of the meeting will be a brief session which will include electing the members of the 2021 Board of Directors.

The highlight of the evening will be a slide show of BMN activities over the past year by Ian McArthur. Ian is seeking any photos you have from club events that occurred before the COVID shutdown. Also, if you have photos showing how you enjoyed nature during the pandemic, please submit them to Ian (imcart@telus.net) before November 28 for inclusion in the December 10th presentation.
