Projects

Forest & Bird is helping native wildlife flourish in the Auckland region through the South-East Wildlink.

Arethusa Reserve is an example of a rare dune lake ecosystem. The dry and sandy perimeter of this area has formed the sides of a shallow basin that collects rain to create a shallow lake and wetlands.

This is where the description of your project or reserve goes.

Moore's Bush is nestled in the beautiful Leith Valley, just a 10-minute drive from Dunedin City.

Pelorus catchment area, or Te Hoiere, is home to one of the last remaining populations of long tailed bats in the Top of the South.

This volunteer group manages 500 hectares of native forest in the Kaimai Mamaku Conservation Park, between Tauranga and Katikati.

There is one circuit track on the reserve that takes approximately one hour to walk. From this track you can access the old fence track and the brow track.

The Branch operates a native shrub and tree nursery in Hastings. Volunteers meet at the Nursery most Tuesday mornings caring for plants propagated from seed sourced by the volunteers.   

Walking Tracks: A walking track has been recently opened and marked out in this reserve, following a successful 20-year planting program carried out by the Waikato Branch.

Kapiti-Mana Branch of Forest and Bird has an active Kiwi Conservation Club (KCC). It's awesome.
They also meet up with other KCC members from the wider Wellington region to have adventures together.

Over the past while KCC has visited :

By providing nest boxes, predator control, and plant cover around Wellington's South Coast we are creating safe places for little penguin kororā to breed.
