Northwest Swan Conservation Association

The Northwest Swan Conservation Association is committed to the conservation of our native swans, both Trumpeter and Tundra, in Washington State and around the northwest region. As the challenges facing swans shifted here in Washington, a locally based organization was established in 2015 to serve the needs of the swans and people in Washington. Our focus includes both Trumpeter and Tundra Swans as they often occur together on the wintering grounds sharing the same habitats and have similar conservation needs and concerns. We also recognize that the needs of swans vary depending on which side of the Cascade Mountain range the swans are located and the time of year they are there.

We are accomplishing our mission through education, outreach, and “on the ground” conservation work. We are active throughout the entire state of Washington, although the needs of swans vary depending on which side of the Cascade Mountain range the swans are located and the time of year. As a locally based group this allows us to build strong local and regional partnerships that become more effective to meet the ongoing challenges that face these magnificent birds.
