This was one of the easier finds today thankfully. Actually I had equal finds to DNF's today so not a wildly successful day overall. Still, nice spots.Thanks
Tftc. Searched with red_ear_slider and unable to find. Replaced at request of CO.
Great little spot to stop on my way north to Coffs today. Boardwalk over the lilypads is beautiful! Quick find. TFTC
After not geocaching for a long time we are thoroughly enjoying our family day out hunting them. Thank you

Finally found this one. My GPS was closer to the hide today. I was looking for a different type of cache also, going by the photos.

A nice little spot for a walk, took the clan and found it rather quickly. Thanks for the cache. Lt. Sniper
Finally got around to stopping here for a look. Nice place. Walked straight past gz as I was checking out the view instead of paying attention to my phone . Tftc
These lakes are beautiful and so peaceful specially on a beautiful still day like today. Thanks Groovydoo for placing this cache. Future Geos should bring tweezers.

Did Not Find.
Looked at several options that met the criteria of the hint without success. Muddy, overgrown and scratching around in the dirt on a contaminated land site. Umm…
Thanks For The Hide.

Very muddy ground and lots of mosquitos after so much rain. Spent 5 minutes looking without success and moved on.
Found with Mrs BillHill, Staying at Coff's Harbour for the week doing some touristy things and some caches if time allows. Ants had taken up residence in the cache.
Signed log and Cache replaced as found.

A quick, easy find in a lovely location. Needs a new log as this one is wet. Had nothing with us so couldn’t replace. TFTC

The log was too wet to sign, and I didn't have any spare logs on me at the time.
I took a photo of the cache.

Didn't see any wasps but did managed to bring a tick home, carried it back in my groin. Found the cache easily so thanks for the cache.
Failed the last time I was here but was a quick find this time. Either the cache has been moved or I was originally looking in completely the wrong place last visit. Tftc. And a lovely second visit to the wetlands.
Second cache along this nice stroll across the wetland. We saw number of water birds.
Nice camo.

Might be worth a trip there groovydoo. If it was supposed to be on the sign, it is gone.
Went to Urunga today for bird watching. No joy with the birds at least I got this cache. log was jammed in so took a photo instead.
I haven't visited the wetlands for a while. It was looking beautiful after all the rain.
The cache was quickly located, signed and replaced.
I took a massive dandelion home for my chooks. They loved it.

The wetlands beckoned again today
So in the chill of the early morn,
while the dew was still on the grass,
and the bird life was most active,
I strolled the boardwalk to arrive at GZ.
Quick cache find
TFTC !!
Gotta give this one a fave point for location, location, location [^]

With the geokids on school holidays we took the opportunity to wander the beautiful Urunga wetlands. After spending a long time watching the bird life enjoy their surroundings we decided it was time to go and hunt for this cache. Arriving at GZ we were quickly onto the spot where we thought the cache was hiding but it took us a few minutes to pinpoint its exact location. A quick signature and we where on our way. TFTC
After arriving in Urunga late on Friday afternoon, I wandered down to the wetlands and soon hand my hand on the cache but, try as I might, I couldn't open the container. I returned this morning, armed with a couple of pairs of pliers, and this time succeeded. It appears the previous finder might have caught a bit of the log paper in the thread, jamming it. Anyway, after rerolling the log it fitted a bit easier and the container threaded back together freely.
Many thanks for bringing me to this nice spot, well apart from the odd mozzy - silly me forgot to bring any repellent. They've certainly done an excellent job with the restoration here.
