There is only one valid record of this species in the ACT (Rarities
Panel News 1993b) and the description was published (Wilson 1993).
There was a further report later in Dickson but details have not
been provided as yet. At present the above is regarded as the only
record. It is possible that this species could become established
here in the future.
Rare vagrant. An introduced species.

Having
seen the Red Whiskered Bulbul's progress as far south as Nowra in
recent years, I predict that one day they will turn up in the COG
area of interest and the ACT. Would anyone like to contradict that
or agree and give a date when it could happen? What is the closest
sighting anyone has had?
