Hi Jan,
The bird has been hanging around for a while now, having been seen at a number
of Perth metro lakes over the last two months including Bibra, Herdsman and
South (see http://birdswa.org.au/sightings.htm and
http://birdswa.org.au/sightings/sightings_133.htm). I haven't been to see it,
but the general consensus seems to be that it's a wild bird (there have been
escapees recorded in the past)
Cheers,
John
