Acacia ID

Question

So I have avoided writing one of these "please ID" posts, and tried IDing the four or five different acacias that grow on my block, but man, I find it difficult.  But since the soft soil due to the rain allowed one to fall last night, I thought I'd ask for help, since , well, fresh is best you know?  Don't have any photos of seed pods.  Located SEQ.  Thanks

Foliage and bark reminiscent of Acacia mearnsii (black wattle) or one of its close relatives, e.g. A. deanei, A. decurrens. You might narrow down by geographic range. 

There's an ID app, but requires familiarity with botanical terminology: https://apps.lucidcentral.org/wattle/identify/key.html

Pl@ntNet Identify (photo-based web app) suggests: A. mearnsii (among others). 

Beautiful trees.

They are a beautiful tree to look at, certainly my favourite of the acacia types at my place.  Thanks for your help.
