Did you know that 1 in 8 bird species around the world is in danger of becoming extinct? As such, Australians should do all they can to preserve native Australian birds. In Australia, birds begin to build nests and breed in August. The breeding season won't end until November. This means that you should take care when trimming your trees during this period. Before you hire an arborist or tree trimmer, you should ensure that you don't disturb nesting birds.

Are you thinking about planting a new tree or two in your yard? Then you should seriously consider hiring an arborist before you select and plant your tree. A new tree can offer your property a host of benefits. It'll keep you cool in the summer heat, serve as a focal point for your garden, increase the value of your property and attract birds to your yard — but only if you plant it correctly.
