I'm not quite sure, but if this is Acacia siculiformis, it's an interesting find. This species is uncommon within Canberra, and hasn't been recorded from the black mountain area before.

It doesn't look like A. siculiformis - another one for me to check.

If you need a quick look at them, they are on the right side of the road as you drive up to Black Mountain tower. They are very obvious in flower now.

It's the same species as sighting 4387939. The species is uncommon on Black Mountain - I've only seen it in a few other places.
