POST POINT HERONS UPDATE:
IT’S OFFICIAL! As of 5/31/22, Whatcom Land Trust & the City of Bellingham closed on the purchase of property that overlooks the Post Point Heron Colony! Whatcom Land Trust will manage a conservation easement that will protect the property from development for as long as the herons choose to live there. We couldn’t have done it without your support and generous donations! A special thank you to Louis Nicksic for this incredible video of our Post Point heron!
Show off your support for local land conservation with shirts, hats, mugs and more! Purchase official Whatcom Land Trust merchandise HERE.
“If we save salmon we have done our job, everyone gets value from that.”
