Shanes Park restoration watch

Targets

• restored woodland
• pollinators
• small woodland birds

Objectives

• Colonisation → recruitment → persistence
• Compare community similarity to Mulgoa reference

Baseline

Cleared / degraded alluvial and shale woodland prior to restoration.

History

Major restoration investment; canopy and midstorey returning in patches.

Outcomes

Colonisation by generalists is observed. Persistence of woodland specialists remains unproven.
