Bird Friendly Farms - to assist landholders with the process of creating a bird-friendly property, BirdLife Australia, in collaboration with Northern Tablelands Local Land Services, has developed the Bird-Friendly Farms guide.

This guide provides information on what birds occur in rural landscapes and why private land is important for their conservation, the characteristics of bird-friendly habitat, and how you can manage the threats to the birds on your property.

Bird-friendly habitat consists of many components and this guide will explain how you can manage habitat connectivity, paddock trees, waterways, tree hollows and more.
