I saw one in October last year, so it's not impossible:
While on a morning walk along "Ben's Walk" in Nowra, NSW, a
Black Bittern (probably male), was seen flying downstream along
the Upper Nowra Creek. The location was approximately 34°52'36"S
150°35'19"E (based on Google Earth maps.) According to Pizzey &
Knight, this species is rare south of Sydney.
