A lot of breeding birds use trees to nest. I have talked to people, including people in the National Parks and Wildlife Service, NPWS, about this idea of blocking certain activities. It flies in the face of what we are about with breeding to stop people from sowing hedgerows. Those two aspects need to be teased out for phase 2.
