Greetings. In the context of updating the Annotated List of the Birds of the 
ACT, I am wondering if anyone knows of historical reports of the Magpie Goose 
in the ACT - excluding, of course, the introduced population at the Tidbinbilla 
NR.

We have historical reports of Bustards and Brolgas from what is now the ACT, 
and much more recent records of Magpie Geese from Rose Lagoon and Lake Bathurst 
in NSW, but I have not been able to locate any historical Magpie Goose 
reports/records for the ACT. Steve Wilson's book is silent on the matter, which 
is instructive.

With thanks - David
