Bursaria spinosa??? An often tall spiky plant. I recall the larger plants have prolific small cream coloured flowers that the parrots love.

At least two species in this photo. The spiky one with small leaves might be Pittosporun multiflorum.

The spiny one is Bursaria, but of juvenile foliage growing in a shady spot, so atypically bright green and lanky looking. Pitt multiflorum has almost circular leaves, but it could be around in Brogo.
