Abstract
A summary of the resource.
This project provides an in depth glimpse into the bird communities present on the property of Abbey Gardens located in Haliburton County, Ontario, Canada. Point count surveys were conducted over the course of three years, at nine sites covering eight different habitat types. Detailed analysis of the composition, diversity, abundance, and distribution of bird species is outlined. Following this, we identify those species present that are listed as ‘at risk’ at some level by either the Federal Government or the Government of Ontario. We then discuss potential infrastructure developments, centered on the creation of a network of nest boxes for several species. Included are guidelines and protocols for the monitoring and maintenance of this network. Finally, we look at ways to involve the community, and visitors of Abbey Gardens in the monitoring of bird populations, as well as several options for informational signage to be placed in key areas around the property.

Haliburton Highlands
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
The natural regeneration and reforestation of derelict land plots is essential to reduce fragmentation among natural forest communities. Reintroduction of habitat, with time, will restore an ecosystem to suitable function for an abundance of flora and fauna. This in turn produces both economic and social benefits. Land plots donated to organizations such as, the Haliburton Highlands Land Trust (HHLT) allow for the regeneration of natural areas in perpetuity. The extent to which the local scientific community understands the processes and progression within recovering forest stands is limited. Permanent survey plots (PSPs) allow for perpetual monitoring of communities within a forest stand. The Dahl Forest property is 500 acres of reclaimed land, used for agriculture for a brief time following increased settlement in the region. In this study, three upland sugar maple dominated PSPs were established, along with one PSP located in a red pine plantation, adjacent to the Burnt River. This paper focuses on the establishment of the three upland PSPs. The objective was to create a baseline report and dataset summarizing the community, for comparison to future surveys to monitor forest progress, and to compare to similar ecosystems in the region. The three plots were in various positions along a northeastern facing slope. Overall, the three plots had similar community compositions and canopies, with variable quantities of stem defects and downed woody debris (DWD). Plots 01-01 and 01-02 were similar in stand maturity and had low to moderate levels of stem defects and DWD, representing the greater sugar maple ecozone. The third plot was an outlier within the tree plots due to an infringing transitional forest community. This resulted in elevated stem density, defects, and DWD volumes within the stand as the mixed forest changes to a mature deciduous stand.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Forest monitoring, management and protection has become increasingly important as Climate Change continues to alter the environment. The Haliburton Highland Land Trust (HHLT) has recently acquired Dahl Forest as part of an Ecological Gifts program. As part of this program they area required to ensure the long-term health of the forest. The objective of this project was to provide the means for the HHLT to monitor the changes in forest health and composition over time. This was accomplished through the means of: preparing a standardized PSP protocol and database, establishing PSP’s in Dahl Forest, and collecting baseline data from the PSP’s. A protocol was established based on a series of protocols produced by Ecological Monitoring Assessment Network (EMAN) to assess the tree health, downed woody debris (DWD) and regeneration of the forest. PSP’s were established in the Sugar Maple and mature Red Pine forests. Based on the baseline data collected it was determined that the Sugar Maple forests composition was dominated by the tolerant Sugar Maples. The forest was relatively healthy with some stem defects found. The Red Pine forest composition was mostly Red Pine with some White Pine and White Spruce. The forest was considered healthy as there were only a few stem defects found. The following future recommendations were made: (a) to establish more PSP in different ecosites and continue monitoring every 5 years to assess the health of the forests, (b) To establish additional protocols that compliment this protocol to develop a greater understanding of the overall health of the forest, (c) to conduct future data analysis to understand the changes occurring in the forest based on the data, (d) to educate the public on the monitoring program and its importance.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Salamanders are an important part in any biotic community. There is great concern regarding the decline of salamanders as a whole and not just one individual species however monitoring these species requires that we have an idea on the current populations so that we can continue to monitor and implement conservation strategies with enough time before these species are lost (Smith & Petranka, 2000).
Salamanders have unique traits that make them favourable indicators of biodiversity and ecosystem health. Characteristics being their durability, small size, sensitivity to anthropogenic stressors such as acid rain, and other industrial and household pollutants (Welsh & Droege, 2001) Salamanders existence in North America in high densities and biomass alongside there sensitivity to environmental change makes them excellent indicators for environmental changes (Welsh & Droege, 2001). The sensitivity of the salamanders derives from their semipermeable slim skin that absorbs any contaminated or natural water, as well as harmful toxins in their environment hence why salamanders are less dense in populations near cities (Mattson, 2019). Monitoring is utilized for salamanders due to the fact that they are sensitive to environmental change and act as bioindicators to detect the change in ecosystems over time (Saber et al. 2017).

A summary of the resource.
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.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
The Haliburton Highlands Land Trust recognizes invasive species as critical components of monitoring biodiversity. With this, they seek to determine which invasive terrestrial plant species have been sighted on the HHLT properties, which species could be present and and how the HHLT should be monitoring for invasive plant species. In order to become more informed in these areas, the HHLT has posed three questions that guide the research of the report. These questions are as follows; <br /><br />1) What invasive species have been sighted on or in lands adjacent to the HHLT properties: Fred and Pearl Barry Wetland, Barnum Creek Nature Reserve, Dahl Forest, Smith Forest, and Norah’s Island. <br />2) What invasive species could exist on or in lands adjacent to any of the above-mentioned properties? <br />3) What monitoring protocols are used by similar organizations and could be implemented by the HHLT to monitor their properties for invasive species? <br /><br />The purpose of this project is to answer each of the HHLT research questions in order to better inform the land trust of the threat of invasive plants and potential ways to approach monitoring them in the future.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
The following report has been written to assist Haliburton Highlands Land Trust (HHLT) in initiating an Odonata monitoring program on their properties. A list of 111 recorded species for Haliburton County along with a few other expected species (Poropat, 2020) make up what HHLT could expect to see on their properties during monitoring (Poropat, personal communication, September 24, 2020). Serving as a further foundation for a future program, records from a number of databases and reports were mined for observations of odonates on and around HHLT properties, resulting in lists for each property. Lastly, I provide some recommendations and considerations for establishing an Odonata monitoring program at HHLT, based on reviews of available protocols and published literature.

Description
An account of the resource
The Haliburton Highlands Land Trust (HHLT) is a nonprofit organization that owns and protects approximately 1300 acres of land in Haliburton County, Ontario. Five separate properties constitute the land trust, including the Dahl Forest, Smith Forest, Norah’s Island, Fred & Pearl Barry Wetland Reserve, and Barnum Creek Nature Reserve. Land trusts are instrumental in the conservation of native flora and fauna, and are often focused on the protection of a specific type of habitat (Brewer, 2003). The HHLT is unique in that all four types of wetlands (marsh, bog, fen, and swamp) are found on the properties (Haliburton Highlands Land Trust – 2020 Climate Change Project, 2021). Natural wetlands are crucial as they act as sinks for carbon sequestration (Mitsch, 2013), and play an active role in the cycling of important nutrients like nitrogen (Fennessy, Rokosch & Mack, 2008). Wetlands also provide habitats for a variety of animals including mammals like beavers and minks, rare bird species, and a range of amphibians (Gibbs, 2000). Knowing this, the HHLT has made great strides in the conservation of many animals that call their property home. From bats to turtles, the Haliburton Highlands Land Trust has orchestrated many projects focused on the monitoring and protection of Ontario’s native species.
