Thanks everyone for the comments. What I really need to know is, if it
is a wild population, can I put it on my list?
My Simpson and Day Field Guide (2004) says that the Helmeted Guineafowl
is not yet included on "The Official Australian List". My Morcombe's
says something similar.
Does anyone know what "Official Australian List" are they referring to?

I think the "rules" are that they have to have formed a self-sustaining
population in the wild for some minimum number of years. Thus some
populations may be "tickable" and others are not, which makes it rather
hard!

        I saw a group (3-4) of Helmeted Guineafowl over the Christmas
break,
        feeding on the side of the (South Western) highway just north of
        Manjimup WA (close to Augusta).
        
        Does anyone know the status of this bird in Australia? Can I put
it on
        my list?
