Hmmm. A little bit of research on the internet for this westcoast
inhabitant found a quote by the NSW Dept of Environment and Climate
Change (DECC) "However, in NSW most of the remaining dingo populations
are found to the east of the state, in forests between the Great
Dividing Range and the coast."
Wouldn't that include Winmalee in the Blue Mountains.

Hi Neil,
A dingo? In the Blueys? Preposterous. Do they have a distinctive howl?
Could have a lot of fun trying to track that down, it'd be a great one
for my BMCC list.

this morning I was caught in a series of thundery showers that seemed to
encourage several Superb Lyrebirds to burst into song. One bird near the
turn-off to Bees Nest Hill began to repeatedly imitate the weird
cackling call of the White-throated Nightjar. The lightening and thunder
also seemed to unsettle a Dingo that began howling on Grose Head South
as I climbed out of the valley opposite on Shaw's Ridge.
