Our team is led by Cam, a qualified arborist with extensive experience in tree care and wildlife habitat creation. Cam’s expertise ensures we take a thoughtful, professional approach to every project. We also have team members like Albie, who brings strong tree climbing skills and a keen understanding of bird hollows. Together, our team is dedicated to providing expert services that prioritise the environment and native wildlife.
At Tree Hollow Habitats, we are dedicated to creating sustainable homes for native wildlife. Natural tree hollows, which can take over a century to form, are essential for many bird species. Our mission is to **accelerate this natural process** by crafting tree hollow habitats, ensuring that local wildlife has the safe and nurturing environments they
need to thrive. We believe in preserving biodiversity and fostering a healthy ecosystem for future generations
At Tree Hollow Habitats, we combine expert arboriculture skills with a deep commitment to environmental conservation. We are dedicated to natural tree hollows, which can take over 100 years to form, and are essential for many bird species.

We believe in the importance of preserving biodiversity and fostering a healthy ecosystem for future generations.
Understanding which birds are native to your area is essential for creating suitable habitats. We
can help you identify the bird species in your location to ensure the habitats we create meet their specific needs. Your input on local bird sightings helps us target species effectively.
Observing birds around the area where you plan to install a habitat can indicate that the location is suitable. Frequent sightings suggest a high likelihood of habitat usage
It’s important to consider what animals or birds you do or don’t want using the habitat. We can tailor the design and placement to encourage specific species while deterring others
Possums may use the habitats, especially if they are designed for small mammals. We can customize the habitat to discourage or prevent possum occupancy if they are not desired
Attracting sugar gliders involves creating a habitat that mimics their natural environment. We can design specialized habitats with the right size, entry points, and features that cater to the needs of sugar gliders.
Yes, we specialize in creating hollow habitats in living trees without compromising the health and safety of the tree. This process involves carefully selecting and crafting hollows that provide shelter for wildlife while maintaining the tree’s vitality
The process is safe when conducted by experienced professionals. We use specialized techniques and equipment to ensure the safety of both the trees and our team while creating habitats.
The primary risks are minimal if done correctly. However, incorrect installation or placement could potentially harm the tree or become unstable. Our team has the expertise to minimize these risks, ensuring safe and effective habitat creation.
Even if you don’t have large trees, there are still options. We can create hanging habitats using reclaimed tree rounds, which can be placed in smaller trees or other locations to provide shelter for wildlife.
The size of the tree needed depends on the type of habitat you wish to create and the species it will support. We can assess your trees to determine if they are suitable for habitat creation and advise on the best options based on your goals.
Creating a habitat hole in a tree, if done correctly, should not harm the tree. Our process involves careful planning and techniques to ensure the health of the tree is preserved. We take into account the tree species, size, and health to minimize any impact. The goal is to enhance the tree’s ecological value by providing a habitat without compromising its vitality. If done improperly, however, it could potentially weaken the tree or make it susceptible to diseases, which is why it’s crucial to have a qualified arborist perform the work.
In the Surf Coast area of Victoria, several birds and wildlife species might use tree hollows and similar habitats. Some notable examples include:
