Acacia macradenia. Identified by Tatters. The phyllodes are really interesting. They curve against the direction of the fall.

From www.sgapqld.org.au/article3.html
A. macradenia is an attractive, tall, spreading shrub commonly called the Zig-Zag Wattle because the branchlets noticeably zig-zag from node to node. The dark green, leathery, falcate phyllodes are usually drooping. Large, spectacular clusters of bright yellow, ball-shaped flowers in winter make it a particularly attractive wattle.

It occurs on sandy or stony soils, often near creeks, in central inland Queensland, from the Tropic of Capricorn south to the latitude of Mitchell. It has also been recorded as occurring uncommonly at the Burra Range between Pentland and Torrens Creek, which is several hundred kilometres from its main distribution. (Ed.: A form of A. macradenia also occurs around Proston in southern Queensland.)

We have found it to be quite common in a locality stretching from the Burra Range north-west to the White Mountains, over a distance of about 70km as the crow flies. A. macradenia is very common in the sandy creek banks of the White Mountains.
