Not a she oak but the same family I think , the parrots like to play with the seed and the finches like to hide in the foliage.

Probably a Callitrus fo some description, would be either Black or White Cyprus Pine, both natives, grows extensively through the Tablelands & Western Slopes. The cracks in the bark can get that deep, that Blue Bonnets can use them for nesting hollows. Also have on the coast, but they are Callitrus collumelaris, Bribie Island Cypres Pine.
