Do Australian philosophers of science discuss how the discovery of a single white swan could disprove the hypothesis that all swans are black?

(Fun story: an Australian friend in a chat once said something about a black crow, and I feigned surprise about that, and then pretended to remember "oh right your crows are black down there, like the swans", and for a moment had him freaking out that he had just assumed crows everywhere were black but American crows might actually be white and he never realized it).
