Sounds silly but it looks like a Mosquito fitted with radial engines and hydraulic undercarriage.

Could be the Argentinian IA-24 Calquin?

Beat me to it ea200 Although the undercarriage doesn't look quite right, specifically the hubs

There are pictures that seem to show different hubs, but it seems to match this one:

It was when I posted it. But following some more poking around looking at wheel hubs, I am happy to make it a statement!

Eucalypts in the background.
Is this an aircraft recognition forum, or a tree recognition forum?

I can confirm that Noyade is correct, it is the Duigan biplane. I cannot confirm the tree recognition but I can only identify a Eucalypt if I'm standing right next to it!

Over to you Noyade.

Thank you ea200. Tree species was an assumption - got a few in the backyard.
Monoplane this time...

Certainly on the right track, teusje - it is an early Australian monoplane, but not from Jones.
It's a pusher prop...
