Yes this appears to be a range extension. The most southerly record
on the NSW coast, to date, is Wollongong. See map below.
It is important that the record get into Birds Australia's data base
birdata.com.au.

Is this a little out of its usual area? Not seen there before
after 30 years of week-ending. I know this is not ACT, but so
many of you are conversant with the usual/unusual across
Australia, I thought you might know.
