In 1980 , the conservation park 's listing on the now-defunct Register of the National Estate argued it to be significant for the following reasons : The Park represents the only large stand of River Red Gum in the vicinity . Being a long narrow Park it forms an important corridor of habitat for nomadic and migratory birds such as honeyeaters , notably the uncommon blackchinned honeyeater and parrots . The Park also contains small areas of swampy habitat . In February 1983 , the southern half of the conservation park was burnt during the Ash Wednesday bushfires
