Description
Logs
This little guy is sitting at his last location, just waiting to be moved on. If you're in the area, why not stop off and help him on his way. We're sure the CO would appreciate it...
We found Bruce exactly where he is supposed to be, still going strong in good condition! We didn't move him because we're new and didn't want to mess things up

Dropped off on a walk to the southern end of Mt Cooke.
I was passing by and this little fella popped up on my radar. He'd been here a while so have picked him up to move him on.
A quick find today while on our way out from Nannup. The cache was in the first place looked so ... easy... SL and replaced. Was not aware this was moveable so it was left in place. Thanks to Candy Cane 101 for the cache.
Relaxing in the bush under tight cluster of 5 trees.
Hiding in rocks with some gnomes. Follow the track from Thompson Road to within a few a metres of GZ. There's a nice spot to cool off not far from GZ.
Placed in a beautiful park, perfect for Bruce. Thanks Candy Cane 101

Found some accommodation for Bruce in the limestone at Mount Brown. He is a metre or two below the summit on the south-eastern slope.
Found him and picked him up. Will let him keep me company for a bit then move him on soon.

Well I'll try Bruce in a new spot.
Sorry for hanging onto it so long.

Well it looks like no one wants to move Bruce on so I'll put him closer to civilization.
Sorry I had it for so long.
Dropped of in a GC cache on the way to Esperance.

Dropped off Bruce on a walk around the Lansdale bushland today. Left this one behind a log together with another cache. Safe travels!
Grabbed Bruce amongst a slew of bingo caches, and I'll take him to a new home very soon. Thanks for the cache Candy Cane 101!
Found in moneybox's cache, will take to Perth on Wed for event

Dropped Bruce in a more comfortable spot to spend the night.
This little fellow has been sitting here for too long so we will find a new hiding spot very soon.
Found a nice protected spot with a friend...
Re-located Bruce to a pleasant location in a Tuart forest. Quite hard to hide a pink frog in a forest so he's concealed by a piece of dead wood.
Collected Bruce today. He appeared to be forming an unlikely alliance with Rum and Croak. We may have to split them up for their own good.
I think Bruce might be having a long hop ahead of him.

Bruce is still enjoying the company of the other frog. TFTC

Will drop at the above coordinates about 8 pm on the 1st of March
A quick wander around trevallyn dam netted a number of frogs this morning. Tftf
One last leap for frogkind perhaps before the end of the race. Nice to meet a frog we haven't found before
After spending the afternoon doing the Ulverstone to Turners Beach pathway cache series, we returned to the beach to drop off this brightly coloured frog. It was tricky considering his unusual camouflage, but hopefully the bushes will conceal him well from muggles.
Found Bruce hanging around in the park with a couple of froggy mates. Love the colour! Shall move Bruce on soon.

Bruce is out and about again waiting for the next team to come along and introduce themselves. Within croaking distance of another couple of frogs.
Bruce is lovely. We found him beside the river on a lovely evening and he decided to come home with us. We will have to find somewhere special for Bruce!
The very conspicuous Bruce is now out and about on the North West Coast and anxious to get about.
Found Bruce on our way home. He was well hidden. Being Pink is not easy when your name is Bruce. Will spend the night indoors where he doesn't have to worry about being seen before hopping on tomorrow.
Quick find this morning. Hmmm, we like to employ the natural camouflage of the frogs we hide. Where can we hide this one?!
Bruce did come to Tassie, and today when we went to the beach he decided to stay and watch the river for a while
Bruce came home with us from the ZEAMMAFF event, he is trying to decide whether to stay in the (wet and cold) Blue Mountains or head for sunny Tassie next week.
Found at the fabulous ZEAMMAFF Event! at Concord West, NSW!
Lots and lots and lots of Leapfrogs and gnomes in attendance! It turned out to be a great day for all Leapfrog and Gnome lovers, a great event with great people attending, we all had a ball.
Thanks to Zal for making it all happen!

This was one of many frogs (as well as a few gnomes) that came along to boot Zalgariath back to Europe at ZEAMMAFF. Things were really hopping as more and more frogs arrived during the afternoon, by the time the event had finished, over 55 movables had hopped onto the table. Of course, with that many frogs hopping around in one place, something was bound to happen, and one poor gnome was bumped to the ground, requiring a trip to gnome hospital and a serious stay there, but the less said about that the better.
Bruce is coming along to the Frog fest. He has regiestered his intent to attend and play games with the other Leap Frogs! Look for him after 3pm
YAY!!!!
The Fluffy Yellow Team told us they had left some presents for us at BMPT#30... and sure enough we were very greatful to find Bruce and 4 others safe and sound
One was my own frog so four new logs for me
Odd Manly Name for such a Hot Pink Frog hehe

Left for the Power Trail Hunters to find.
I can't believe it . . . yet another pink frog!
That's two in one day . . .
I guess we need all kinds in this race!
Anyhow, will now seriously consider what to do with him/her . . .

'Bruce the pink' has moved down the mountains to visit a local Geocacher, no doubt he will be on the move very soon. Don't go looking for him he has already gone.
'Bruce the pink frog' has arrived in Lithgow with some mates, he will stay for a short while before moving on. Don't go looking for him I have him in custody.

Another one I hadn't found before. Rescued him from the GCA desert that is the North Shore. Off for a long drive tomorrow.
Bruce found a nice damp frog hollow in a Turramurra carpark.
Found Bruce again, this time being menaced by big, black bling-covered gnome. He was glad to escape but the gnome jumped in behind him.
After a lunch dropped off two friends under a rock. Some sticks and leaves as camo. Take one, take both, they can be separated...I Think
Found this bright frog right where blossom* said he would be...now where to hide him...?
Rated: for Overall Experience
Bruce is a bit hard to find camo for with his sunburnt skin. I found a nice spot behind a log and next to a rock. He's very sensibly covered himself with leaves so he doesn't get any more sunburnt
I could hear Bruce croaking from my place.
He is dressed all in pink, must be a cross dressing frog!

The pink guy spotted some bunnies and hopped out to play.
Bruce hopped out the front door and into the lake across the road.
Met Black Bunny at the event and we exchanged frogs. Bruce is now with me and refuses to go out into the cold wet afternoon. I told him that's why he's turned pink. Not enough water.

Found on a night time run.
