I think it may be Eucalyptus stricta (Blue Mountains Mallee Ash)

Thanks Michael - I looked that species up on the ANBG's Find A Plant platform in this location and couldn't find it, but it did show there's a Eucalyptus multicaulis (Whipstick Mallee Ash) there. (I'll do more homework in future when I post things from the ANBG!). The birds appeared to be eating the blossoms.

Thanks Helen Whipstick Mallee Ash does seem to be a good fit
