This looks to be Cygnus atratus, the Black swan, which is native to Australia. (For some reason, the plus feature isn't working to add a vote to the above ID).
Hi Kevin, which birds are the ones you need identifying? Some information in the Description section of your spotting would be helpful. Project Noah is designed to have individual organism spottings not multiple, so, in cases where you have more than one species visible (and they can't be separated into their own spottings) please choose one species for your identification. You can mention in the description about the other species seen in the image.
