I found this on our local nature reserve. It looks quite different from most of the other trees but I suspect its a native. Apologies for poor quality mobile phone picture.
It looks a bit like one we have growing in the bush around here that the locals call wild cherry. Brian may know , being more knowledgeable on trees.

I can't see the foliage clear enough to hazard a guess but the "Native Cherries" are species of Exocarpus, E. aphyllus has bare twigs no leaves, E. sparteus has very fine foliage like some Casuarinas but softer, E. cupressaformis as the name suggest foliage like a cypress. They are all semi parasitic so a bit difficult to propagate.
Sorry I can't be more help.

If it is a cypress-pine, there should be some harde angular cones somewhere on the tree. The shape of the cones is the best feature for identifying which species.
