Native Teak (Flindersia australis)

Sydney's Domain. There's a good chance this tree was planted in the 1860s or 1870s by Charles Moore; the Scottish collector and superintendent of the nearby Royal Botanic Gardens. This tree is in the Citrus family, which appears unlikely, for a casual viewer.

 

I saw a Blue Tiger butterfly nearby, an unusual sight in Sydney.
