Thanks Cristop. I went back to the site and could not find any pods at all, but good advice. I did get a sample and took a photo of the second acacia for scale. any suggestions what the second acacia is?

Hello, Just wondering if any knowledgeable person could give an id for these two Acacia's. I am interested purely from a knowledge perspective. Thanks for any help in advance. Greg

thanks for your responses. I appreciated it. These are taken on the darling scarp/eastern hills, (exact location not announced for obvious reasons) A friend is adamant the first one is an Acacia acuminata, but i can't find any information that shows the flowers having such a short sessile. I did note the two barks have a similar pattern. Is this any indication? Might be a dum question, but do all A. acuminata variants have curved tips on there phyllodes (Because on the macro level, the first species does not)? Thanks again for your input. Greg.
