Description
A late entry into the 2011/2012 frog race!
This one has jumped from the past and into the frog event at Kings Park. A little cute frog (courtesy of Bubba Bear) who can look out on the world from his little jar. No log so just move it on to prove you had it.
- Caches must be found and hidden by the same cacher (i.e. no mailing the cache to another cacher to hide)
- There is no limit to the number of times other cachers can find / move the cache provided there are at least two other finds / moves in between
- If a cacher moves your cache overseas and it remains unfound overseas for 1 week or more, the same cacher may move your cache (within the country or to another country) without breaking the "2 moves" rule
- There is no limit to the distance other cachers can move the cache
- Other cachers in the game may find / move your cache, but they must move it on within 2 days

It was great to meet this movable at the movables event. Moved along to a quiet area of the park in Cranbourne.
This was the oldest moveable I found today amid 100 others at the Meet the Moveables event at Brimbank Park
It’s great to see this little fellow still active Fluffyfishh

So many moveables came to the Meet the Moveables event today there was little to no chance of a different log for each one. Suffice to say that 4 hours of entertainment was had as we sorted through caches, found ones we had and hadn't logged, enjoyed the company of others and generally had a great time with the moveables, and Geocacher geocaches and even an ephemeral cache or two. Thanks for this moveable geocache which I logged today.

I had received a heads up these were out again, so on a late afternoon retrieval mission I headed over to the location of this and a cluster of others in the nearby cemetery and was happy to be able to collect them. I will put them out soon.

Found on the 22nd of September - unfortunately was not able to assist with the moment of these creatures until now. My bad.
I heard a croak, and looked, and in my pond was a frog!
Oh wait, this frog can't croak.. well.. it got my attention

#GA3042 - 12:35; Headed south for a weekend of football with Sol de lune and toy hunters and took a short detour through Wangaratta to gather some information for a long range GC multi. Spotted this little guy and his mate were hiding out along our route out of town, so stopped and collected them for travels further afield. TFTC fluffyfish

Grabbed on an excellent footy trip to Melbourne with Sol de lune and LuckyL10n. Nice and easy - TFTC!
Spotted this moveable in the hands of Whitewebbs with Luckyl10n and Sol de Lune at the Oz Geo Muster Mega Event in Morisset NSW.
The Oz Geo Muster Mega Event. What a blast. This was my first mega event and I loved it. I traveled up and around with ziggiau. Ziggiau drove while I tried to navigate and research our next location at the same time. haha. It was great meeting GCA and GC cachers. I just wish I could have got to know you all more, but hopefully time and more events will do that.
Thanks for the moveable.

Taken Lil Frog to the Geomuster at Morisset to camp in the Showground. Can be picked up anytime.
After being by the side of the Pacific Highway for six months with not a single visitor we were starting to fear the worst for Lil On a weekend visit to Port Macquarie we called in to see if there was a problem. The only problem was Lil was sick of hanging out at The Donut and leapt into the RV. Road trip it is! Lil Frog is now with us. We'll find somewhere to drop him off soon.
Lil Frog was tagging along on a road trip east. While we were having a reviver caffeine break, Lil Frog had hopped off into the bush. Seemed like a good spot to await the next finder so we left it there. Hoppy travels Lil .

In residence at The Rock before moving further north
Hanging out with the kangaroos, searching for two nearby caches high in tree.
Great to see the cache again. Great job to those that have helped maintain it in its travels. I was lucky to see it as Laz was very quick off the mark. Keep on travelling Lil Frog!
He is HOME resting in a nice shady tree
found him hiding in the hills now he has some company and more travels and maybe a plane trip back to his home

Well, Lil' Frog has grown up a bit, and has outgrown his container. Instead of being inside the cache, the cache is inside Lil' Frog.
He's currently hiding behind a stobie pole near the road side.
It's peaceful along this stretch of road these days, ever since the freeway was diverted through the Heysen Tunnels.

We've been on the lookout for a replacement frog for this cache, and we found the perfect candidate at Woolies today.
The cache is now a Tommee Tippee bath squirts frog!
I've included some photos of the procedure to restore this cache's dignity.
We'll get it back into circulation soon.

if j_and_j want to put a little frog in the cache then I am more than happy to keep it going. I would like to keep the frog theme going. let me know if you can help. cheers ff
We weren't expecting to find this cache today, and didn't realise we had until the end of our 480km round trip today.
Tucked away with two other moveables was the log scroll for this cache. As the log book is the heart of any cache, I guess you could say we found it!
Does the owner of this one still want it disposed of? We're happy to get it back in circulation again in a regular container.
Thanks fluffyfish.

I left the cache where I found it at Maitland with the other 2 so hopefully the next finder can remove this one.

Found a small container with a log scroll claiming to be this cache. See attached pic. Only problem is that it was 200km from where it's meant to be - found at s34 22.180 e137 38.807.

Another short hop for Lil Frog… now at the PO.
Lil indeed - found in the company of a few others after an early morning stroll. TFTC.
Not a long move, but out into circulation again.
Found while munching down a great meal....(not the frog.)
Thanks for another frog...now for some angels.

Famous last words of course - how hard could it be? Well a bit harder than expected because the coords were about 30m out, but the clue helped so we found it after several minutes of searching. Quite a Lil frog indeed, thanks!
we're up for it on a nice afternoon like today. 1.54km in a straight line from home, how hard could it be?
Isaacs Ridge is a wonderful place to see lots of kangaroos. Spectacular at dusk, just bring a torch and someone who knows the tracks.
Wow, was just clearing litter at Lillico when I stumbled upon this one by accident! It believe an animal may have moved it as it certainly wasn't hidden, just lying on the edge of the car park with cigarette butts! Here goes my first moveable and also my first .com.au geocache!

Lil Frog is hidden in a spot near a viewing platform for little penguins. Might make some new friends. In the company of a bingo cache.
Found this one close to home. Haven't been looking at moveables lately but couldn't resist one in our own backyard, or nearly. TFTC
Went back to GZ, it's still there, so have re-taken the coords. This time it's actually where it's listed.
Thanks to Old Saint who picked up the fact that the coords for this moveable (that I'd placed) had it on the west coast and I haven't been there for a couple of years! I can't figure out what I'd done, and I've long deleted those waypoints off my GPS. I will be back up the NW (Somerset) next week, so will go find it and re do the coords. Sorry if anyone looked for it on the west coast and thanks Old Saint for picking up my error. Current coords are in Somerset - I think my east coord is correct, but i've been playing wiht the south coord tryingn to get it close to where it should be!
Right on the path to the beach - lovely!
I found htis about 9 months ago, it has a log sheet now. So signed it and is now ready for a new hide.
Lil Frog is back on the road with Dippedidooda ready to continue it's tour of Tassie.
Found whilst walking on the beach. It appeared to have fallen from its hide. Will rehide soon.

Spotted this little guy hanging in a crevice. Didn't move just took photo.
Placed next to the quiet Mersey River well below the snow falling on Devil's Gullet This is glorious little place for a for lil frog hiding in a crevice with a view of a bridge.
Found on the table at the Christmas in July event. The weather was too cold for a frog so he hopped into my pocket for a trip up to the warmer parts of Tasmania.
Left on the table at The Christmas in July event
This guy didn't appear to be in my GPS so Swampy looked it up in Geosphere. He was on the way to another cache and since we had to walk straight past we couldn't leave him there. A quick find because I have learnt through caching that rocks tend not to grow on trees. Will move the lil guy on soon
This one wasn't in Tim Tam's GPSr so I looked it up on the net.
A short walk from the other caches nearby and on the way to another.
Tim Tam found it quickly as rocks don't grow on trees!
Thanks for the cache

Dropped this little fellow off beside a walkway in Lenah Valley.
I found this cache, but not near Old Beach (as the previous hider indicated) - it happened to be hidden in Hobart - I discovered it whilst looking for another frog in the same spot. I have entered the coordinates where I found it with this log, but will enter new coordinates when I put it back out somewhere.
Looked in the obvious spot, fork of tree under needles but dnf.
