[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A species of pea flower? They grow on bushes with hundreds of individual flowers, each one to two centimeters across. Colours vary but are locally known as egg and bacon flowers, I call this one Y. Sam because of the resemblance (as I see it) to the cartoon character. I will post a bush (shrub) in flower soon.In spring areas are fantastically painted with blue sky above, golden wattle in the trees, egg and bacon shrubs sitting on a carpet of rusty gravel.

Hi Peter,

It surely looks like a kind of pea flower (a member of Fabaceae family). But I have never seen before. Your flora is very different than ours and perhaps it is an endemic plant, that we have never seen and known it.
Nice photo.
Bravo and TFS
Greetings

Hi Peter,
