Hi people.
So glad the Site is up and running again, thanks to all the people involved.
I came across this tree today and was wandering if anyone could id it for me. It wasn't very tall maybe just under a meter with tiny leaves. Maybe someone has info about the plant but if know what it is it shouldn't be too hard to find.
Sorry for the poor quality pics but trying to focus in the bright sunlight and keep the pixels to a minimum... I'll try and get some better pics when I can if that helps.

My guess would be leucaena - but it is a bit hard to tell from the photos.

Do I detect a thorn with three spikes?

If so Gleditsia tricanthus is the beast.
