      Yes, indeed. I see two possible species in these pages:
      http://www.apatita.com/herbario/especie.php?id=Eucalyptus_camaldulensis
      http://www.apatita.com/herbario/especie.php?id=Eucalyptus_gomphocephala
      but is hard to tell which one it is,as I did not make pics of the tree and possible flower or fruits that it could have to identify it at species level. Eucalypts are common sight in Alicante, Spain (where I come from, actually :-)).       Posted 3 years ago
