Recent fires across the country have generated a flurry of activity at the Woodend Mens Shed.The wholesale destruction of vast tracts of native forest has created intense competition for nesting hollows among small marsupials and birds.
To help overcome this shortage the Woodend Mens Shed is constructing nesting boxes and feeding stations from recycled and donated materials. These will be distributed across the fire ravaged areas.
To date boxes have been sent to Gippsland and Batemans Bay and work is underway on more boxes to be sent to these areas and for local use.
