    Abstract

    Birds fulfil various important roles on wool properties, including natural pest control and as indicators of productive pastures and adequate shelter for livestock. Many woolgrowers derive satisfaction and pleasure from having a variety of birdlife on their farms. In turn, New England wool properties provide habitat for a wide variety of species, including threatened and declining woodland birds. The Land, Water & Wool Northern Tablelands Project (NSW) recorded 109 species of bird on 24 wool properties between Walcha and Glen Innes in surveys between 2002 and 2005.
