Description
He's a dragon on a hunt!
Releasing this little guy as part of the Summer Scavenger Series.
I'm guessing there'll be a few visitors to the "Bingo Trike" - so hopefully he'll get picked up soon.
He's bright orange and he's not as firece as he looks, please take him on some lovely adventures.

This one appears to be MIA and given it's been missing for over a year now, I suggest it be archived to stop it turning up in the search lists.
We've had a carload of moveable caches on a road trip with us recently but it's time for some of them to go their own way now
A quick find on a beautiful day in this part of the world. We've been travelling around the area using caching as our guide. We picked up some moveable caches that have been hiding here for a while now. They're coming on a bit of a road trip with us. TFTC
I saw this trail of GCA caches appear about a month ago and have wanted to attempt it for quite a while. It ended up being a relaxing 3.5 hour drive around the country side. It’s nice to have a couple more GCA caches with a 
on them. I found a few different dinosaurs and other different types of hides. All caches found today were quick finds and were left at its current location for the next finder to move along. Today’s finds also included a few Trig-Points finds. I would like to thank all CO’s of the caches I found today and for allowing them to bring joy to me and the rest of the caching community. TFTC’s and TFTTP’s
P.S. The cache has been left at above coordinates for the next finder to move on.

Out for a night drive with Just a cacher and collected this lot to take south to Canberra.
Saw that someone had left these poor little defenseless creatures out in the bush in the dark, so we dashed off on a rescue mission. We will give them some counselling, and what medical aid they require, before releasing them into a more salubrious district.
One of twenty five at this location. All in a bag so find first then head over to the others.
Thanks to Roger for this cache of moveables. I'll hide them in Wingello SF within the week.

Found this one on the table at the event for Australia Day for the moveables. Thanks for the moveable which was one of 101 that made their way to Ebenezer from far away places to spend some time in the local winery before scattering to new places. Good luck on any further moves

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.

Headed up to Ebenezer with LuckyL10n to attend the Aussie Day event. 45 degree day made for a bit of a fun trip, however it was pleasant in the winery building. A good few hardy souls were in attendance as well as over 100 moveables. Some good conversation with cachers not met before and a good couple of hours was had by all. The trip home was a little different to what was expected but turned out ok....
Thanks to all the CO's for the caches...

Called into Tizzana Winery to buy some wine and saw the moveables and the list. The family wanted to continue on so said "Hi" to a few we'd previously met then headed on with some wine. Diolch for the moveable. I didn't pick up any.

Attended the 'Australia Day Moveable Event 2018' and came face to face with other like minded cachers, one being another lucky (luckyl10n) and 101 moveables in the area. Many thanks to the CO's who have published them over time and others who bought them together for the event.

Found this one at the Australia Day Moveable Event 2018 event held at Tizzana Winery in Ebenezer. Another 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 101 moveables come together. Thanks for sharing.

I was happy to get a chance to see a new pile of moveables today thanks to a visit from Sol de Lune.

Don't look here as the train load of moveables has departed & is heading south. Thanks to Sol de Lune for the swap which will occur on Saturday.
Found along with several others - many thanks to rogerW3 for transporting them down the coast.

Moved down the coast, don't go looking this will not be there until Tuesday and is already gone anyway!
Waiting for pick up...or a trip to a winery
Spotted this one at a little mini moveable convention up on the hill this afternoon. Signed our names and left it in the care of alnic39 to move on. Thanks for sharing.
Rated: for Overall Experience
Met up with alnic39 after work and a group of moveables were complaining of the cramped space that they were kept in. So while we were catching up we let them stretch their legs. Got their autographs & they wanted to know why they were so popular again. Told them it was part of the summer games & they were cool with that.

Moved to a location along the road to Tallowa Dam in Kangaroo Valley. You will have to negotiate the embankment - don't park on the road. High clearance vehicle but 4WD not necessary. There are a couple of options to access the parking. A short walk into the bush with some fine scribbly gums to admire. Cache is with a few other moveables. Averaged location. If you see a large, leaning scribbly gum you're nearly there.
Moved to Woollies for pick up, don't bother looking gone already.
Here we are again, must take you further away next week.

I decided to take advantage of a couple flexdays to come up the mountains and stay with my favorite old man
Of course there was a price to pay and I was made to find a few caches to pay for my bread and board, nothing onerous this far but I fear he may have other plans for the next couple days.
Thanks for the cache

This little dragon is on the prowl again
Today we needed a dragon zone cache to fill a spot on our Finds by Day of the Year Dragon Zone graph as part of our quest to meet the requirements for the Molten Solstice Horologist Mission. We don't have many dragon zone caches close by so checked for recently hidden dragon zone caches and found that Nutwood33 had retrieved several caches on his visits to the mainland and had recently hidden a dragon and a gnome along the walking track between the Robigana end of Supply Bay and Swan Port. These would be easier to access than the trig points on the east coast so we decided on an early start with the hope they would still be in place when we got there.
After an uneventful trip on the Exeter Highway we pulled into the little parking area at the Robigana end, donned walking boots and picked up our walking poles and headed towards Scavenger Dragon. Although the path is well trodden the grass on the side has grown quite tall and overhangs the formed pathway making it difficult to see what might be crossing the path ahead of you. Fortunately we only met a wallaby, a pademelon and a little bandicoot - no slitheries.
As we neared GZ we looked round for a possible hide but found nothing so we followed our GPS and soon found a very well hidden little orange dragon. Thanks for bringing this moveable back and letting it loose in the north Nutwood33. We will take it on a short trip before releasing it in the North West.

This noisy fellow is free again. He travelled with me for a while and every time my bag got pressured, he'd let out a squeak. Going through security at Adelaide airport was entertaining!
Managed to arrange my affairs this morning so that I could collect this fellow on the way to the airport. Bit of a dodgy hide. Marginal room to park on a busy road with blind corners. Fortunately co-ordinates were good and the first guard rail examined turned up a squeaky dragon.
Off to Tasmania. SA is way too hot at the moment!

Called past here today for a look and found this moveable, just!
Cache was located by touch, at the extremities of my reach and took quite a while to extract from its hidey hole.
I did get it eventually however
A cute little dragon he is as well
Cheers
PS left another dragon to guard the area in the place of the Scavenger

#GA1369 - 16:30; Doing the 'Tour de Wollondilly' with Sol de lune and andrewbt to collect a few trigs and other bits and pieces. The mission completed, we were on the way home when we stopped off to pick this little guy up on the way past. Now safely in the hands of Sdl, I'm sure he'll clock up some good miles soon.

While after one moveable found this one guarding the log decided to take it with me on the journey. Thanks for the moveable celtical. A nice blank log for FTF left another moveable in it's place

Letting this little fella loose. Popping him inside another movable as a start because the bigger movable should be in BIG demand for the scavenger series as it has "Bingo" in the name.
Hope that's allowable (like a TB in a cache) - if not let me know & I'll start him off somewhere else.
Hopefully someone picks him up soon.
