Service tree, Sorbus domestica, is listed in Field Maps so can be reported there. It is not common and has low priority on the ACT list of naturalised alien plants.

I can't say from the photos which species; probably not a local Eucalyptus. Decades ago several Eucalyptus species that are not local were planted around the Hackett water tank, I think in order to test which one is suitable to re-timber Mt Majura which has been cleared for sheep and cattle farming and timber collection. At that time it seems that there wasn't a concern whether species was local or not.
The branch could have been fallen / blown from any of those planted not local trees.
