Sorry Bob, this great shot of yours has been a previous winner (August 2014 - Sunsets - joint winner) & thus cannot be re-entered. Can you substitute another?

‘Scratchy Wattle’ (aka Red Wattle, Mallee Wattle or Acacia Monticola). This one is in the WA goldfields, but also grow in many other parts of the country. I think they are all the same species, prized for their usefulness in indigenous culture for making clap sticks (wood has a good ‘ring’) as well as digging sticks, boomerangs & even spear heads.
Just for added interest - a pic of the clapsticks I made from Scratchy Wattle can be seen on my blog here (apparently not very phone friendly)

Yep, no problem. Been a while since I entered and forgot this had been a joint winner. Ah the ravages of age....
