The birdata distribution map for the Spotted Harrier shows that the species is reasonably often reported along a band of land from Southern Canberra down to Cooma.  The patch described by Geoffrey is at the Northern end of that strip. 

The same source suggests Swamp Harriers to be more common to the North and West of that corridor.

Over grassland south of Hindmarsh Dve between Canberra Ave and Monaro Hwy, 1-45 pm.  There have been intermittent reports over the years of the species around that location.
