There's a breeding pair in Vaucluse, and at least one, if not also a pair where I live in Maroubra. There's also another in Sydney's CBD that patrols over Hyde Park - I've seen it perched on one corner on top of the Supreme Court Bulding late one arvo, the perfect perch to view the whole park!
There are also a lot more owls about the place too, but these are much harder to spot at night as they patrol parks for mice & rats. One boobok owl scared the crap out of me one night while walking home when I lived in Paddington. The bugger swooped into a tree that was directly opposite a little park - must have been its look out post. It was the flutter of its wings when it alighted onto a branch right beside my head - I didn't hear the owl approach and it just appeared! I aged two years instantly! Part of the reason I suggest the owl dummies.
But I think Marty has the better solution for your longer term problem.
