Description
An entry in the Spring Caching Carnival.
Stegosaurus (roof or plated lizard) was a species of large herbivorous dinosaurs from the Upper Jurassic of North America. It is in the middle of the most easily identifiable dinosaurs, due to the characteristic double row of kite-shaped plates along the animal's back and the four extended spikes on its tail.
Stegosaurus can reach up to 12 meters in length and weigh up to 5,000 kg. However, most specimens never go beyond 7 meters and 2,000 kg. This one is only about 6cm long and weighs less than 50g.

I picked this up today and will move it on, although with the present situation, that likely won't be far. TFTC Shifter Brains.

Wrapped and placed under the same tree that GA16982 resides. About a metre away from GZ.
Dropped off today. *they are still with last me*
Discovered this with a big bunch of movables today.
I took this one along with me.
Like the others I will move it on in the next few days spreading them out on the map a bit.

I was happy to get the chance to see and sign this cache in a collection of move ables in the hands of another cacher today.
Thanks

For a bit of a change from sitting in front of the computer solving jigsaws today, I managed to discover this and a few other Moveables. They aren't moving much during this period of isolation due to the COVID 19 restrictions which are being lifted gradually so it is good to be able to log these thanks to SDL. All available logs were signed and returned to the cache. Thanks Shifter Brains for this fellow .

Dropped this off on the way into the ACT to move it on it's way.
Was stuck for a while due to the holder not doing too much travelling lately.
The tub at the drop off point was broken and damp inside so will need to be replaced (we left the TB's in a plastic bag).

With a day off and an event in ‘The Rock’ plus pre-geocaching lead to a great day out. I also got a FTF on the cache ‘Break the Drive – Urana’ (GA12529). I started out with collecting the finds around Urana which included the most disgusting cache I have ever found (GC3BDFX). [xx(][xx(] I completely disapprove of that cache and hope to never see a hide like that ever again. [xx(][xx(] I visited a few different spots around and I enjoyed the ‘Leap year 2020 at The Rock’ event hosted by B&MG. A great BBQ and many geo-conversations were had by all. There were also many GCA moveable caches signed while we were there. TB visit on all caches. I would like to thank all CO’s of the caches I found and for allowing them to bring joy to me and the rest of the caching community. TFTE and TFTC’s
This cache was dropped on the table in front of me at a GA event in Shepparton this morning.
'Moved to a GC event in Whittlesea Victoria, where it was collected by another geocacher

We attended the January Catchup event in Hadspen today as did four other teams and lots of moveable caches and some TBs. This moveable cache was one of the many on the table at the event, TFTC
We hadn't been this way for some time as the introduction of FOGO bins to the Central Coast means fewer visits to the tip (waste management centre)for us. A build up of fallen branches in recent winds gave us a reason to come this way so stopped to pick up a few moveables close by. This was one of them

Off to Sydney for a work Christmas party day-trip and I arrived near Melbourne Airport with a whole hour to spare. Happy to geocache my way around Keilor, this was a moveable I came across. TFTF Toriaz!
Moved this cache along and it's now ready to be found. Thanks for attending the Meet the Moveable event and hope your travels are safe and far.
Headed down to Melbourne for the Meet the Moveables event at Brimbank Park, where this moveable, along with about 120 other were found. A good turn out at the event and everyone seem to have a lot fun talking about all things caching while finding the moveables and getting a start on the Journey or Destination summer game. A good couple of hours were spent in the area before witching hour rolled around and it was time to head back up the highway towards home. T'was an uneventful trip and with the number of moveable on offer, was certainly worth the drive.
Thanks for the moveable.....

A quick pickup of moveables today for a secret meeting to take place in just a little while. Your geocache would ike to join the secret activities so it may not move for a little while but it will be safe and sound and will be moved along (and hopefully logged quite a bit) in the not too distance future.
Took nothing, left nothing.

Found amongst the large collection of visiting dinos at the Sydney Dinosaur Meeting in Bankstown. Travel on Shifty Steggy!
Another moveable race, another event...and another reason to get out and about....
Decided late last night that I'd head up to Sydney for the Dinosaur Racer Swap meet event. Took about 16 racers with me to drop off, and managed to find a few as well...with this being one. Grabbed a few to bring back to Canberra and they will released around here shortly.
