Certainly looks like lanigera, a new location if so.

Hello Michael, re Acacia lanigera sighting 4394630. Visited area early this morning to further investigate and correct gps location. On the other side of the track behind the A. boormanii there is approx 100+ of the A. lanigera both seedlings and plants ranging in height from 30cm to 1.8m. Have no idea if these eminate from an old planting here or not nor if sighting still of any significance. Thanks Owen.

Thanks Owen - I suspect it is not a planting as it was not a species grown by the ACT Government nursery (at least prior to 1990) and I suspect it is more widespread across the lower part of the ACT than records suggest.
