Only a few minutes from home so feeding it the same type of leaves I found it on.

By the leaf structure I think it may be Apple Box (not really good with the various eucalypts). There are quite a number along this stretch of the road but I haven't reported them on CNM as I suspect thy have been planted. I can take some photos and put on CNM for confirmation.

Probably Eucalyptus cinerea which has been planted expensively along roadsides in northern Canberra and occurs naturally north of the suburbs.
