Abstract
This project aims to examine bird observations and monitoring on the properties of the Haliburton Highlands Land Trust (HHLT). By examining observations on their properties, HHLT can learn about the species themselves and gain insight into their properties' ecosystem dynamics as a whole. Particularly concerning more sensitive species, as having data on their presence can provide information on habitat quality. Likewise, the monitoring recommendations included should help foster long-term monitoring protocols into the future.
