The first 2 photos are P. linearis, but the third looks more like native cherry, Exocarpos cupressiformis, with its dark but not flaky bark and drooping branches. Also it's a bit big to be P. linearis, which is usually a shrub, not a small tree.

Hi Jackie, quite right, the Persoonia is the smaller of the two trees in the third image, which was included as it is the Image that has the GPS coordinates.

Hi Liz, Nope, I don't think it is in the 3rd image at all, because the smaller trunk looks more like a small stringybark. But I guess if you delete that image maybe you lose the location? Might be worth trying and see what happens.

yeah you're right - im kind of standing under it, sort of, the trunk is out of the picture, my apologies - and the foliage of the gps one is out of focus, so all we can see in that one is the other stuff, sorry. I will try and delete it and keep the gps. Ive switched to a camera that does gps now so that should make things easier!
