Native Bird Preservation Trust

The Native Bird Preservation Trust was started in 2007 by the current owners of Oak Lane Lodge, Mark and Maggie Willis who are passionate about our Native Birds. The Trust is a Registered Charitable Trust and was set up to raise funds to be distributed to various groups involved in Native Bird Protection.

The Trust supplies items, such as predator traps, that is has purchased (working hard to purchase items at discounted prices so it is able to supply more for less) and then the Trustees choose to whom the items are donated. The Jazz festival was set up in February 2007 to raise funds for our local community and the Native Bird Preservations Trust, with thousands of dollars donated over the past thirteen years.

The logo of the Native Bird Preservation Trust was designed and painted by internationally renowned New Zealand artist Blake Twigden. ( A copy of the original painting is in the entrance hall of the Lodge)


Kaka’s at Oak Lane Lodge

For the past 20 years Kaka’s have visited the site of Oak Lane Lodge. They travel every year arriving at the same time and departing around the 26th October each year.

The main attraction for the birds is believed to be the Tangelo orchards where they meet, eat and generally dominate all the other bird life.

Kaka’s are social birds and very cheeky so when you are wandering the property you will see and hear them amongst the trees.



Kaka is know as the “talkative bird” and their calls, like their name, loud, staccato and unmistakable.
