Merlin Falcon Foundation
Stewardship
Team Merlin has evaluated the Northwest Merlin status through extensive regional fieldwork, human interviews and literature review. We have collected data, conducted analysis and documented our findings in scientific reports. This comprehensive information is providing natural resource agencies, environmental organizations and you the public with an insightful perspective of Merlin for their conservation stewardship. This project is a gift to our community and to wildlife. You are cordially invited to assist with this exciting process of discovery.
A wise Merlin once said "Engage in Service Above Thyself"
Uniting how we live with what we believe is a learning process. People love the rich Northwest environment... high mountains with pure air to explore, wild rivers providing adventure and clean water, welcoming islands and the opportunity for solitude and reverence. Population growth and the need for resources create a regional lifestyle challenge. Taking responsibility for our personal relationship with the land and lessening our collective impacts promotes an optimistic future. You can begin this process in your own life by evaluating your intentions, reviewing how you can be part of the solution, striving to live lightly on the planet, preserving and planting native vegetation to create human and wildlife habitat, supporting conservation organizations, composting your organic materials, recycling everything you can, and not always buying new, etc.
