Not very typical of rubida.
Robdeb, It is sometimes possible to do an ID of eucalypts with a photo of branchlets and leaves. However, you normally require mature flower buds and/or reasonably mature gumnuts, often both.

Betty - I was going on the presence of the horizontal "axe" markings on the tree which I think are made by a beetle larvae and in the ACT have only seen on candle bark and mountain gum. Out of these two rubida seems more likely

Ginger tree syndrome. This will be an interesting sighting to revisit to look at post drought recovery.
