SEABIRD HABITAT RESTORATION
Making coastlines safe for native birds.
Seabirds spend a significant amount of their lives at sea, however, most still require healthy and safe coastlines to return to the nest and raise their young. The Halo Project is committed to enhancing coastline areas known to be of importance to tītī, penguins and other native bird species.
Activities include annual surveys of penguin burrows along the Doctors Point - Māpoutahi coastline and predator trapping along the coast. Future activities including working with the community to undertake habitat restoration as well as looking at ways of mitigating recreational activities on bird habitat.
