At Hello Cocky Habitat we create essential habitat for our furred and feathered friends. We are facing a rapid decline in habitat due to urban sprawl, development, forestry and fire. More than ever it is essential that we retain or create habitat for our hollow dependent birds and mammals.
Hollows are considered essential for 16 mammal species in Victoria and 44 bird species.
We are facing a rapid decline in habitat due to urban sprawl, development, forestry and fire. More than ever it is essential that we retain or create habitats for our hollow dependent birds and mammals.
Hollows form naturally as a tree enters “senescence” or decline. Branches fail, insects take advantage and fungal rot sets in which creates a hollow.
The problem we face is that by the time a tree reaches this age (usually 70+years) we have removed all risk of branches failing, or worse yet, we have completely removed an older tree before it reaches a state of decline where it provides a habitat.
At Hello Cocky Habitat we can shortcut this process by creating carved hollows in the tree which then provide habitat without branches failing and hollows forming slowly over many years.
Using our broad knowledge of modern Arboriculture we utilise specialist techniques and tools to prune trees and create habitat with a holistic view of a tree’s role in the ecosystem along with safety, especially in the urban environment.
Tree Hollow Creation In Geelong
Tree hollows are crucial for many native species, offering shelter for birds, bats, possums, and insects. While natural hollows take years to form, our expert tree hollow creation services speed up the process. Here’s how we do it:
1. Assessment
We assess trees on your property to identify suitable candidates for hollow creation based on species, age, and health.
2. Planning
Tailored plans are crafted to create artificial hollows that mimic natural ones, ensuring they're safe and durable for wildlife.
3. Creation
Using specialised tools and techniques, we carefully construct hollows that meet the specific needs of targeted wildlife species.
4. Monitoring
Our team provides ongoing monitoring and maintenance to ensure the hollows are utilised and remain in good condition over time.
Bird Nest Box Installations in Geelong
Bird nest boxes are essential for species lacking natural hollows. Our installation services include:
1. Design
Customised nest boxes are designed to meet the nesting requirements of various bird species, ensuring proper dimensions, ventilation, and protection.
2. Placement
Strategic installation in safe locations shields the boxes from predators while providing ideal habitat conditions.
3. Installation
Our team securely installs nest boxes, ensuring they're stable and accessible for resident birds.
