Quite a lovely sight. The fruits look like Angophora, because they have longitudinal ribs, and the flowers are terminal and compound, i.e. clustered on branch ends, leaves are opposite, and some of the Angophora species are trunk-branch resprouters. So for now best listed as Angophora sp. If you can revisit include in the new sighting close ups of the fruits, leaves and bark (if there is some that is not still black with charcoal). Then the NatureMapr timeline function can track the post-fire recovery.

Angophora sp.

Dear Treehopper, Congratulations you are one of few people to have heard GG vocalise. I have herd it twice and concur it appeared to be between parent and semi-independent baby. The eyeshade from GG are the brightest of all gliders and they are relatively easy too detect with modern LED spotlights. I use a LED Lenzer H14R. The species is listed federally and I have successfully nominated 3 populations in NSW under the BC Act - it will only be. a matter of time before the species is listed under this act.

They usually don't vocalise which makes them difficult to find in faunal surveys. You have to be prepared to walk off the vehicle tracks ideally at dusk to find them. There are probably many more GGs in this compartment of the State Forest
