Fruits and flowers

On an exercise ride yesterday I found quite a lot of fruit on various trees and vines.

Lilli pilli (Acmena smithii)

No idea what this lurid specimen was.  Suggestions welcome.
Wombat berry (Eustrephus latifolius)
Pittosporum undulatum
Not all berries are good!  Cotoneaster is a nasty invasive weed, much gobbled by Pied Currawongs and then seeds crapped out to grow everywhere.
The big fig on Lakeside Drive is well endowed fruit
In the afternoon we walked the Davis Beach-Chip Track loop, returning up the road.  Some wattles are beginning to flower.  First is Acacia suavolens.

Then Acacia myrtifolia.
