I took these photos because I was fascinated with the unlaid egg. She obviously died from hitting the fence and I wonder how far off she was from laying her egg!

I agree that is likely. I was bothered by the pale ground colour of one of the barred feathers on the left, but perhaps it has faded.

I've just got home and saw this post via Ian Fraser. My suggestion is Plumed Whistling Duck.

We found this bird (obviously female) which apparently flew into the fence and perished. Unable to identify, so posting a couple of pics of the bill which may help. The bird was near the Curriwinya NP, Queensland, shearing shed. Unfortunately
there is no foot, which would have been helpful. Note hooked bill.
