Installing nest boxes

We've recently installed close to 100 nest boxes at the project's reservoir site to retain habitat for native owls, cockatoos, brush-tail and ringtail possums, microbats and small gliders.

There are seven different types of nest boxes. Each type varies in size with different-sized openings to cater for a variety of species at the site. A qualified tree climber selected the safest and most appropriate trees for each nest box.

We have established an ongoing maintenance plan and will continue to monitor the boxes; we are excited to see all the different species that find their way into the boxes to call them home.
