Of course, for the reports to be easily accessible for future Narrabundah-eyed researchers, the reports should be followed up with a report to the COG database.

Newcomers to Canberra might like to know that the ‘Narrabundah’ to which Jack refers is a hill at the western extremity of Canberra, not near the suburb of that name. 

 

‘Narrabundah’, I have been told, is an aboriginal name for a hawk, the ‘Hawk Theatre’ being the auditorium at Narrabundah College.

 

The reporting of the DWS is, I think, at least partly a response to Julian’s helpful suggestion that sightings be reported over the next 2-3 months to gain an idea of when (if at all) this alleged migrant is absent from Canberra.
