Spinosaurus Dinosaur is a movable set up for the 2018 Spring Caching Carnival and Beyond.

Logs
Had a bit of a root around in the leaf litter. Found a couple of pine cones but nothing that looked deliberatley placed.
One of three moved to this location. Another back towards Wingello. Gravel road for about 800 metres. Parking off road nearby as is a GC cache.
Upon reassurance visited again. Unlike last time the park was deserted - Sydneysiders too busy hugging one another in the main drag. Looked carefully & saw the tail of this dino sticking up out of the foliage. The rest followed. Prior to the discovery of this site I was the 4th best in NSW & 11th nationally at DNFs so my difficulty to be expected. Will move on. Thanks TOC.

This movable is still in situ. North side of toilets, yellow bottle brush tree just in front of brown / cream fence join. on left side of tree hidden down in foliage.
I no longer receive notifications and only noticed these when updating GSAK. Visited yesterday morning, checked thoroughly per the hint but nothing presented. Beaten to it perhaps. A good place for a hide.

Finally found a location to place 'Spinosaurus Dinosaur Racer for the 2018 Spring Caching Carnival and Beyond' at Berry. I went looking last week but didn't find a suitable location and couldn't quite remember my usual tree hide location. Hopefully this will get picked up soon. I moved the plant foliage and made a little hole to slip the movable into so it was out of sight. Thanks for the movable 'HansJJ'.
Headed down toward Binalong to conduct some cache maintenance over the long weekend between here and Wyangala Dam. We had a fabulous time and wished it could have been a few days longer. I had wondered if there were any movables around about the place to discover and alas there were and they had been sitting patiently waiting or someone to find them for near on 4 months, as as such I just had to be the finder. Now back home I will move it on soon. Thanks for the movable.

Stretching the legs after lock-down so decided to head off and grab a cache or two. A quick grab here today with Just a cacher.

Quick find. Movables are fun! It's good to be allowed to be out and about, even in a small way.
With the country going into lockdown & meat / chicken / rice & dunny paper in short supply I figured it was time to go for a caching run & drop of some movables & complete some caches, needed to clear my head as job insecurity is of real concern & I had enough of the bullshit – so cache on – a nice short detour from highway – 1 off in this hidey hole S34 49.554 E148 19.014 to S34 49.553 E148 19.014
Found in the hands of HansJJ – nice to meet you – great to find so many movables - thanks

#GA3387 - 17:30; I was unable to head north with Sol de lune yesterday for the Meet the Moveables (NSW Edition), but had a very sneaking suspicion that he may return with some booty after a prisoner exchange. My suspicions were well founded and a plan was hatched for a couple of members of the Gungahlin Chapter of the Cerberus Mob have a meet and greet with the new arrivals. Nice to see a few newer and a couple of older moveables make it down to the National Capital. TFTC HansJJ

For each qualifying geocache that you hide or find during the game period you will be offered the opportunity to click on a ground tile and reveal what lies beneath.
A moving cache, by nature, may have been moved since you last determined its location. It may have been picked up but not yet rehidden so it's considered 'in-transit'. There is no foolproof method of determining where a cache is simply by the log types that have been placed against the cache.

Found this one at the Meet the Moveables (NSW Edition) event held at Tizzana Winery in Ebenezer. A fantastic turnout at the event run for the current 2018/19 Journey or Destination game being run on Geocaching Australia which saw a total of 75 moveables come together. Thanks for sharing.

What a great way to start the new year with a meet the movables event that saw 75 moveable caches and 10 geocacher caches in attendance. All was laid out so one could walk around the tables to sign each and every log before a swap occured to send them away again in a new direction.

Spending the time with a group of friends rocking out & having a great time seemed like a bad idea to split them up so left in place
This was one of 7 moveables that decised they would stay out doors and got the best of both partys. One in the winery and one across the road. Left in place
Found as part of the Summer Games

First find of four today while out with the geokiddies at Oatley Park. Strolled down the path to a familiar hide location. We were greeted by a rainbow lorikeet poking its head out of a hiddy hole as we approached the tree hiding the cache! A nice two for one find here. Wow this one is a sizeable dinosaur! Will move him and his mate along soon. Somewhere out of blue territory I think....
Thanks for the moveable HansJJ

Came to Rookwood after work armed with dinosaurs and others looking to take over the cemetary the second stop was to extract Spinosaurus Dinosaur Racer for the 2018 Spring Caching Carnival and Beyond from his wet hidaway & to meet up with other like minded travellers. Gnorman Suga Pop and Lucky1955's Dinosaur 5 decided that they liked this spot so they jumped before I got a chance to pull them back. Thanks for the moveable HansJJ
