Old growth trees containing natural hollows are now rare in our environment. Building your own wildlife hollow or purchasing a commercially available nest box can provide much-needed habitat for hollow dependent native birds and animals.

Local nest box guru, Neil Padbury, will explain why native species need nest boxes, what they require and where to locate the boxes.
