Hi all
It’s up to the dingo and strictly on his terms !!

In regards to how close we get to the dingoes I have mentioned before that when we see the dingoes we head over towards them and probably sit and watch from a good 70,80 odd metres away. If the dingo or dingoes wants to come over then they will ,simple 🙂
These images were taken last Saturday and sort of explain how close we get to the dingoes.
Never to we invade their space. They simply will see us from a distance and if the come over then bonus 🙂
Most of the time the dingoes or at least one or two of them will come over to check us out just like this male has done in these pictures.
We love visiting our Alpine dingoes
Thanks guys 🐕❤️🇦🇺

Hi all
I asked a friend of ours Angela who is a keen bushwalker/ hiker / wildlife photographer just like us and a very good one at that I must say if we could share some of her Alpine dingo images.
Angela hikes the high country of Australia and takes some amazing photos.

Here is a link to Angela’s insta for those interested ⬇️

I love these images of some of our Alpine dingoes that Angela has met on her adventures. Just gorgeous 😍🐕❤️🇦🇺
We all met up again yesterday and head off on an adventure to find dingoes. We found a few
More to come
Thanks guys 🐕❤️🇦🇺

Hi all
I sit and I watch the dingoes go about their day.
They were feeding on a kangaroo carcass. They seemed to be taking turns. The more dominant would have his turn then down the ranking it went. The second ,then the third and then so on until the more dominant decided he would return to feed and just a show of teeth and whoever was feeding at the time quickly got the message and moved on except for these two dingoes. These two didn’t even consider going anywhere near the carcass whilst the others were hanging around it. They were obviously at the bottom of the pecking order and stayed well away. Yes they watched the others intently whilst they were feeding but stayed well away.
I kind of felt sorry for them but that’s the way of the wild , the way of the dingo.
🐕❤️🇦🇺
Thanks guys

Hi all
Please don’t look at the last photo if you are squirmish.
When we first arrived on the scene black and white fella was rather clean. He looked up at us and then headed down into the reeds.
He knew we were coming well and truly before I even got the camera ready.
“What’s he doing down there” we thought . It soon became apparent that there was a kill down in the reeds because when he eventually came up out of the reeds his fur had turned a shade of red 🩸
He came over a little closer ( not that close ) looked us up and down then went and lay down to rest his full stomach while another dingo went down into the reeds for his turn at feeding on the carcass.
Pretty amazing to encounter such things.
The last photo is of the dead roo that they were feeding on so please don’t look if you have a weak stomach but that’s nature.
Thanks guys

Hi all
Just a beautiful young female Alpine dingo sitting near a small carpark up in the high country.
Passing through, stopping for a sit down scratch and then on her way.
Right time, right place 📸

Hi all
Good friend of ours Sharon Patto was hiking up in the high country last week and like us Sharon always has camera in hand 📸
Sharon was off hiking in a totally different area to us and was lucky enough to spot these dingoes.
I asked Sharon if we could share some of the photos that she took of the three dingoes so here they are 🙂
Not all dingoes are tan ,some are piebald, some are skewbald and yes different coloured dingoes do belong to the same family group.
Great pics Sharon 🐕❤️🇦🇺
Thanks guys

Hi all
It’s get to -20 degrees in some of the frost hollows up where we see our Alpine dingoes 🥶.
In ready for winter our dingoes grow a multilayered coat which consists of a soft, insulating undercoat and a coarser outer coat. This combination effectively blocks out snow, moisture, and sub-zero winds.
The fur grows visibly thicker and fluffier around their chest and neck areas just like this fella.
They grow an exceptionally bushy tail. When sleeping, they curl into a tight ball and wrap the tail over their face to protect their nose and eyes from alpine conditions.
Mother Nature is amazing.
Amazing that only two months ago this dingo looked lean and had a very sleek appearance with his summer coat.

This Dingo definitely has his winter Woolies on and yes he has been feeding on a roo carcass.
Pretty cool hey 🙂
Thanks guys

Hi all
This dingo had a good feed ,had his fair share so he must be one of the more dominant dingoes in the family group but not the boss.
He holds a mid rank status ( sounds like the army ) from what I witnessed watching them for a good 4 plus hours.
He would wait for the black and white dingo to finish feeding before he went in for a feed.
They all work together and put “who eats first” aside when it comes to maintaining and defending their territory against other dingoes and small predators such as foxes. That’s probably why I have never seen a fox 🦊 in the same area as where the dingoes live.
Someone needs a bath 🐕🛁
We took well over 100 photos 📸 of this particular dingo , here are 22 🙂
We love hiking out yonder where the dingoes live. It’s amazing watching the dingoes.
That’s all we are ,hikers with cameras in hand.
We know a little about the dingoes behaviour , we certainly are not dingo experts .

More to come……
Thanks for enjoying the page 🙂

Hi all
Yesterday after our hike and dingo experience up in the National park we got talking to a ranger who pulled up as we were packing up the car getting ready to head home.
Now this is the gods honest truth……
The ranger ( lovely chap ) told us that the dingoes that we see in this neck of the woods are indeed pure dingoes. He told us that many have been DNA tested over the last few years and all have tested to be pure dingo with no dog ancestry at all.
He knew an awful lot about the dingoes and taught us a few things re the dingoes in this area ,the different family groups and where their territory boundaries overlap etc. What he emphasised to us was that despite the different colours in the dingoes coats out here they are all 99.99% pure dingo.
I know that’s hard for some people to get their heads around but it’s true so 👍🏻

These images are from yesterday and yes like we do we took over one thousand images yesterday of the dingoes.
This particular black and white dingo (piebald) was the first dingo that we saw. He saw us well and truly before we saw him because there he was way over there watching us.
We sat and observed him. He actually came over to have a better look at the humans ( but not as close as one may think , big lens 🙂 )
As I mentioned in the previous post most of the dingoes were bloodied from a recent kangaroo kill they had been feasting on but not this black and white dingo. This dingo must have been at the lower end of the pecking order ( so to speak ) because everytime he went over near the kangaroo kill they were all feasting on he was snarled at and chased off.
I’ve posted 18 or so pics of him because he is so nice.
The dingoes have their winter woollies on now 🙂
We spent a good 4 hours just sitting and watching the dingoes from a distance. Occasionally one or two came a little closer
We have always been going bush with camera in hand ,it’s what we do 🙂
Thanks guys
🐕❤️🇦🇺
He is a dingo and if you disagree that’s ok. Everyone to their own 👍🏻
