Do you treasure wildlife as much as we do? Probably!
At Sound Transit, we provide affordable, environmentally-friendly public transit that connects residents in our region to where they live, work and play.
Our environmental and sustainability program supports people, planet, and prosperity - oh, and cute animals!
In the spirit of celebrating Earth Month, we wanted to share some of our favorite wildlife camera shots from around the region.
Check out a few of the shots we captured from Upper Sammamish:
And here are some of the shots from the area near the West Tributary to Kelsey Creek:
Last, here are some photos from our cameras at Ronald Bog Park in Shoreline:
As we expand the regional transit system, our construction can have environmental impacts. These cameras were placed as part of our mitigation efforts.
For example, Ronald Bog was the site of a big wetland restoration project that was done as part of the Lynnwood Link Extension (opening this summer!).
You can read more about the Ronald Bog project here.
Restoring habitats for wildlife around the Sound is just one of the many ways that our commitment to sustainability goes beyond taking cars off the road.
You never know when we might share another post focusing on wildlife. We encourage you to subscribe to the Platform blog, so you don’t miss out, and to follow us @SoundTransit on social media.
And happy Earth Month!
