User's notes

A very old acacia with blackened aged trunk with sap rising. I steeped out the width and it was around 8 to 9 metres wide

To Id bipinnate wattles it helps if we can see the whole leaf from above - they have different arrangements of the glands (or circular bumps) along the leaf stem - also if your thumb or a ruler is in the picture it gives us an idea of the size of the leaflets - also a distinguishing feature
