Murrumbidgee Red Gums Important Bird Area

The site has been identified by BirdLife International as an Important Bird Area (IBA) because the riverine red gum forest constitutes one of three breeding areas of the vulnerable superb parrot. The boundaries of the IBA are broadly defined as known superb parrot breeding habitat with a 10 km buffer zone of foraging habitat. It supports from 2000 to 4000 individual birds.^[2] Other notable birds recorded in the IBA include black-backed and Australasian bitterns, Australian painted snipes, bush stone-curlews, diamond firetails, flame robins and painted honeyeaters.^[1]
