Restoring landscapes across the Mount Alexander Region

New Connecting Country Project – Woodland Birds

Posted on 2 July, 2012 by Connecting Country

Connecting Country is pleased to announce that it has been successful in obtaining funding from the Victorian Government’s Communities for Nature program to implement the first year of its four-year project “Enabling Woodland Birds to Thrive in the Mount Alexander Region”. Scientific research has shown that this bird community is in decline and under threat from habitat reduction. The project will increase the extent and condition of bird habitat through through the Mount Alexander Shire and immediate surrounds using an approach combining on-ground works on private land with community engagement, education, monitoring and other related activities (click here for more information on this new project).

This project will commence soon, and we are currently advertising for a Project Coordinator to manage its implementation (click here).  There will also be many oppportunities for the community to be involved in various aspects of the project.  More details to follow over coming weeks and months.
