Peregrine falcon stars on ID quarter
The design for Idaho's state quarter was released today. It features the head of a peregrine falcon, the state's motto "Let it be perpetual," and an illustration of our state's distinctive shape.
Given the two top alternatives - a farmland tapestry or lyrics to the state song - the falcon is a good choice. With luck, coverage of the quarter's 2007 release will help bring attention to the work of the Idaho-based Peregrine Fund and its World Center for Birds of Prey, which works with raptors to monitor environmental health and promote species conservation.
Julie, it was good to see you at Eliot this past week. I'll read your blog with interest.
