This area features wetland habitats and also some invasive Melaleuca
and Australian pine forest but overall has lots of good plant diversity. It is threatened by a highway known as the Kendall Parkway. I posted a video about it a couple years ago: https://youtu.be/zCTnIi3oCJI
There was a brush fire here last March, which probably benefitted the plant diversity. News reports/videos about the brush fire from late March 2022:
