N2  - We report on a programme to integrate monitoring for birds into conservation management and planning by local government. Bird surveys were used to develop a monitoring protocol for birds in woodlands/forests of north Wyong. Regional vegetation units have distinct bird assemblages when surveyed with adequate temporal and spatial replication. Multivariate analyses revealed a different bird assemblage structure in some locations, suggesting that assemblage decline could be monitored through time. Attributes necessary to successfully monitor bird conservation are discussed. We conclude that the success of a conservation management plan in conserving birds within the north Wyong area can be determined with appropriate monitoring.
