Corowa District Landcare members and BirdLife Australia’s Southern NSW Birds on Farms project participants are invited to help Save the Nectar Sippers. Join us on Sunday 13th July at Memorial Park in Howlong to collect some bird-friendly native plants to build and enhance habitat in your garden or on your farm.

Speak to BirdLife Australia and Corowa Landcare experts to learn how to become a citizen science birdwatching volunteer for the Birds on Farms project, and ask questions about your next on-farm habitat restoration project.

Please bring something to take your plants home in. Help Save the Nectar Sippers by encouraging them to your place.

To RSVP and enquires please contact: Ben.Humphries@birdlife.org.au

About BirdLife Australia - Saving the Nectar Sippers

Following a successful application to the NSW Government through its Saving our Species program with co-investment partners Foundation for National Parks and Wildlife, the Southern NSW Birds on Farms project will implement scientifically rigorous land management approaches to assist recovery of declining woodland birds in the South West Slopes region of southern NSW. In partnership with WestHume Landcare Inc. and Corowa District Landcare, this project will support landholders to undertake targeted woodland restoration actions in priority landscapes, including stewardship agreements, grazing exclusion (fencing), facilitated natural regeneration and strategic revegetation. This will build on investment already secured by BirdLife Australia through philanthropic support, which supports community engagement, citizen-science bird monitoring and development of Woodland BirdHabitat Plans.
