User's notes
Pair with 3 well grown cygnets.
Historic sighting of 1986. Location is approximate as things have changed much since 1986 it is difficult to remember where they were in Tidbinbilla at that time. Time is undoubtedly inaccurate. These are scans from our old photos, so the quality is poor.
Also seen in pic/s are Pacific Black Duck, Australian Wood Duck, Australian White Ibis.
