Introduction The following is an outline of the data we want you to collect and the methods to use. What is this project? Equipment to assist with measurements Who Can I Contact? Assessing We'll show you the three different ways of assessing, depending on the position of the hollow. Assessing a nest box not in a tree Assessing a tree and its hollow(s) Assessing an artificial hollow Additional Knowledge Where does the tree need to be? Finding a hollow? How do I record the trees' location? How do I record the distance to the nearest bushland? How do I know what type of tree I’m monitoring? How do I estimate the height of the tree? Are there other hollows in the tree? How do I estimate the height of the hollow from the ground? How do I estimate the size of the crown/canopy? How do I know if the crown is in contact with another crown? How do I know if the hollow entrance is small, medium or large? How do I record the diameter of the tree? What type of hollow is it? Does the hollow have multiple entrances? How do I work out the direction the hollow is facing? How do I know the angle of the hollow? How do I know the depth of the hollow? What photos should I take? What other information should I include? What do I do ? Initial Assessment Wildlife Monitoring Timing and methods Equipment Safety Steps
