Could not spot this one.

We've had a few movables for way too long, so I went out for a drive and set them all free today.

I had travelled to Temora with Sol de Lune and Nibletricecakes where we discovered this moveable. TFTC

One of the many GA Moveables I found while hosting an event at the Temora lake. TFTC

Found this old familiar movable in a dirty, dried out mud sort of place. I think it may have improved his looks a trifle.
The log container is missing, but we don't have a suitable sized one at hand to replace it, sadly.

thanks, Caughtatwork!

Out for a drive with Just a cacher to break the Sunday boredom and decided to grab a cache or two as we passed by.

A quick grab here today.

Thanks for the cache caughtatwork.

Time to move come on.

Travelling along Nanima Road today on my way to an Event, I decided to tackle some of the caches in the local area. Found this beauty but like others before me, left it there. I may even go back and pick it up when I am in less of a hurry and have found a good hidey hole for her next abode.
Thanks for the cache Caughtatwork.

Today we concentrated on finding some moveables and the odd traditional caches along the way and this was one of them.

Periodically the Geocaching Australia review team checks moveable caches that haven’t been found or moved in over 90 days.

This moveable fits that brief, however reading previous logs it seems to still be at the posted co-ords and is just sitting there waiting for the next finder to give it a go.

So, if you’re in area why not stop by and help it on its way......

Found out with Kittykatch and Darzee Di. My first moveable. Bison part was missing. So checked it out and put it back.

Bison tube doesn't have lid and log book missing.

Found with KittyKatch and Joolay whilst out grabbing the awesome Chocolate Factory series and puzzles. It wasn't long until KittyKatch had the container in hand, however the bison tube had no log book or lid and we didn't have a replacement so no way of signing. We decided to leave it there for another to find and move on. tftc Caughtatwork

We discovered this cache in place today - first moveable I have found out in the wild in ages! The bottom of the bison tube is missing, so there is no log book, and not really anyway to put in a replacement. So we looked at it's not so pretty face and put it back. Cool to pick up a moveable - TFTC

Checked in on this one while doing the trail. Left it where it was.

Thanks

This 'little' angel is now hanging out along the route of a new cache trail, so should be too long before its on the road again.....

Found this one and a mate hanging around together not far from home. I'll move this big boy again soon!

Down and in the hands of another cacher!

Found! Will move on with it's sister - Yuki - GA1569

Contacted last owner who retrieved it for me. That's an awesome cacher!

Picked this one up off a fellow cacher, will find a new home for this one shortly.

Ok, did not read logs until after looking. Not here, last cacher has had it since September.

was sprung doing another cache luckily not by a muggle but by tansa (sorry if I spelt that wrong). Gave a few hints for a different one very nearby to what I was looking for and when she found out I do GA caches mentioned she currently has this one. Signed the logs thanked the her and off I went

Picked up move on soon

When i found Aphrodite i was told it was not coming home with us so i left it in the middle of the night to keep watch over a nearby new cache. The grass was longer than i expected when i put it down so you may need to move the grass a bit to find him.

Well, that's not what i was looking for, but Aphrodite and all his friends can come for a drive.

Waiting some one to drive past to pick me up

Whilst in the hands of a fellow cacher, I quickly put my scribble on the log before it was taken for its new deployment.

Good luck traveller

picked up in kama. bloody heavy!

Picked up from a fellow cacher as part of a prisoner exchange. Now out on parole in the Kama Nature Reserve awaiting its next host.

#GA228 - 20:00; Picked this 'little' angel up as part of a recent prisoner exchange with a fellow cacher. Didn't realise I hadn't logged the find until I was about to update the move coords. Carried it around for a couple of kilometres looking for a suitable hiding spot. Finally found something suitable on the return journey. TFTC caughtatwork

GCA 995 - 9600. Found in the hands of Sol de Lune.

Nice to see an Angel still weeping around the place...

TFTC !!

I find that the moveables are a great addition to geocaching. The fun of chasing them around - sometimes finding them in place - sometimes not - puts a bit more interest on the Geocaching Australia side of things. These games also tend to boost the numbers of moveables around - especially in December and January - perfect time to spend a bit more time caching away in Summer and / or holidays. My favourites tend to be the Gnomes - memories of a misspent childhood come to mind.... Lol.

I was able to collect this at today's Socializer event. Thanks

Thanks for the moveable....

Dropping off after a road trip to the ACT and ran into a fellow cacher who grabbed this one.

Found with Just a cacher on our way back to the ACT after a short break in SA.

A quick grab here today.

Thanks for the cache caughtatwork. Will move him on soon.

Easy find with Black Bunny. On the way home from an Adelaide trip, so Aphrodite should be out and about in Canberra in a few days. And she isn't ugly.

After spending far too much time hiding in the darkness within my car Aphrodite has taken wing and relocated to the garden by my letterbox.

Found this one sitting on the table at the CVGT event.

Attending the Central Vic Get-Together event in Castlemaine we spotted two GCA moveable caches waiting for someone to collect them and move them on. We grabbed them as there were very few cachers at the event who are interested in GCA. They're heading to northern Victoria.

Thank you for this GCA moveable cache. It's our 271st GCA cache find.

Spotted at the CVGT event. I shall have nightmares

Moved from Karoonda SA to Castlemaine VIC

Found this at an event in castlemaine

Discovered in hands of iluvtrekking.

Suscoe found this little chap at the back of the caravan in Karoonda.
Sent on its way in a gleaming Red 4WD.

We found the perfect drop off for this lovely lady, right on the door step of a Geocaching Australia Field Operations vehicle.

Discovered in the hands of ILT at the event.

Mmm it seems that beautiful Aphrodite will be traveling with us for a while.

Hidden in a tomb to scare the next person foolish enough to try and find it. My fuel consuption has improved greatly since dropping it off too .

Got home to find there might be some moveables close by, after a short trip I was searching by a tree when something big and scary jumped out ...... I frantically tried to not blink. Phew, that was close.

Will brop off agsin soon.

Dropped off for a local cacher to come find something creepy.
Don't blink.

I grabbed this cache after caughtatwork found it this evening. caughtatwork hopes to rehide it tomorrow afternoon.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Picked up and will be hiding in the next day or two. Great place to hide this one.

OMG - I'm so sorry! I'm in the middle of moving house at the moment so haven't been keeping up with the race or any other caching at present. It appears I made a two digit transposition in the posted coordinates. Checking my data the corrected coordinates are as posted with this new move. Apologies to the CO Caughtatwork and EuDes for my stuff up and tardiness to spot and fix the problem...

Google Maps shows the current coordinates as being in the front yard of 1085 Riversdale Road. Is this correct? While it may well be, my feeling is that there is an error in the South coordinates.

Can it be confirmed please as there is no indication in the placement log or the hint that one has to go onto private property to retrieve this .

Ta.

The stoney-faced Aphrodite has set herself in wait to lure the unwary with her err charms...

Argh!

A quick stop this morning to move on at least of these caches. With this in my bag I didn't have room for the others. Travel far Aphrodite.
Thanks caughtatwork for the angel.

Grabbed on a lunchtime angel run. I'll spread then around the eastern suburbs in the next day or two. Thanks caughtatwork for the angel.
