Nice quick find here, though a touch off with the coordinates on my device. What a lovely little park! No ducklings spotted here unfortunately, but plenty of birdlife to watch for a while.
Found by the foragers. Felix and jazz.
Lots of broad leaf and narrow leaf plantain at the park. Great for healing stings and for eating

Ducking up this way to see some friends this afternoon and had to grab a cache to keep the streak alive for the month and stopped by here.
Made my way down the hill and circled GZ before spotting the container to get a quick find.
Thanks iluvtrekking for placing Hillarys a good name for a duck for me and others to find.
I added my name to the log at 14:35 on 9/7/2023.
This is find number 7448 for me.

A nice evening stroll in the area. I had to wait whilst some muggles fed ducks nearby then was able to locate it just before it got dark. TFTC
A lot of rowdy birdlife in a beautiful little park. Nice quick find. Was a bit exposed so tried to cover a little. Tftc!
A quick easy find in a beautiful peaceful location..

Out and about again, what ended up being a beautiful day although starting off cold. Began in Freo, then headed up the coast to Sorrento, then inland to Kingsway.
Found a variety of hides and in different areas which made for a nice day. Generally quick finds today
Thanks to all the CO’s for the hides I found.

What a beautiful little place. Loads of bird life here, great spot for a picnic.
Awesome hidden park as described, probably hasn’t been this much water in the pond for years, cache and n good nick
We got distracted checking the wrong spot for a minute then made the find. Signed the log, TFTC
Really enjoyed the approach to the cache through the trees with the water in front of me. Beautiful at 16.30 with sun starting to go down. Easy find TFTC
Found it after a bit of gps bounce. Nice park. Cute ducks. And I agree. Hillary is an awesome name for a duck.

Great ducks here! Blinknurdead made the find while baby atCat had an early lunch. TFTC iluvtrekking
Not in the first place checked, but didn't take long to track down. TFTC iluvtrekking.
Unexpectedly easy due to it being out in the open. Signed and replaced with the usual cache-type camo. All in great condition and surprisingly dry. TFTC. Lovely park in a beautiful setting and surroundings.
We set off for our NOR jaunt a bit later than expected & are paying the price with the heat. TFTC iluvtrekking
Found with Meme28 on a night expedition. Would be a lovely spot during the day. TFTC.
After our arrival yesterday we had an easy start this morning. We walked the dogs and on our way also logged a couple of caches.
Thanks to iluvtrekking for placing the cache.

Lazy caching morning, walking the dogs at Burns beach and later on a visit to Hilarys Boat Harbour. Tried to catch a few boxes.
Thanks to all COs for placing and maintaining the caches.
Found and logged together with Swerik, Mikaching and GPS-Wickie.

Before picking up some guys coming from Rotto I had a very short walk in this park 
! Waiting for a muggle to leave and then I could sign the log and drop a TB

Beautiful little spot! Found it whilst visiting the family! Greetings from Broome 
I made the most of the public holiday with a nice looping drive from home this afternoon to pick off some stray caches / new hides and generally tidy up my map a little. Plus it needed some more yellow This was my final cache of the arvo, and what a lovely spot to end on, very pleasant indeed Area was deserted so no trouble searching, although I did make it a bit harder than it needed to be because I got distracted by another potential camo object and searched around there for a few minutes, rather than pay attention to where the GPS was pointing, lol. Once I came to my senses I repositioned myself and immediately made the find. I didn't see any TBs inside but otherwise everything was ok here, no problems at all - TFTC

Took TB and dropped in another TB trying to make its way back to Broome. SL. TFTC.
Nice find a nice little park. Dropped off a trackable and retrieve the Another. Let’s keep the moving!
Got bored at the beach so decided to do some thong-caching. Found dead crow - wasn't me! TFTC.
Day out fishing, with Bluejuicecharters. Couple of caches before heading home. Tftc.
Well have never been here. Have driven past on Hepburn. Thanks for bringing us here very pleasant. TFTC
TFTH iluvtrekking. Out and about while there was a bit of a break in the weather on this miserable day. Lovely little park with a lone muggle and his dog and the ducks for company. Found the cache quickly, SL and took TB
This is a nice park. Never knew it was here. TFTC Took a TB and left another one.
Nice quick find walking dogs to the park. So many parrots in the trees - amazing!
Might want to BYO pen or a pencil sharpener

Struggled around for a good half hour, nice place with plenty of beautiful birds around
TFTC! After some hectic working weeks of late, I convinced Cravo10 to organise his week to get Sunday off as well so we could go caching!!
We've spent most of the winter focusing on grabbing a large number of bush caches that were not to keen on grabbing in the warmer weather due to reptiles being around. With me nearly stepping on two bob tails in the last week it cemented our position on no bush caching until the cooler weather kicks in, and besides we've cleared out most of the series around the metro and some country areas!
We started the day off by meeting at the old mill in south Perth and then headed to Subiaco to ran a FTF, which we were successful at even with some nagging problems with the iphones and the tree cover, then went to the pinnacles in balcatta to grab the newly published cache there and the fantastic earth cache too!
We then followed the green dots up to kingsway, across to Hilary's and down west coast highway until we were back on the freeway to south perth.
Overall a good days caching with thirty plus finds including two FTFs, which is really nice for the stats
On a downer we missed picking up the rare moveable cache "on the run" which had made its way to Coogee!! Bummer!!

Hi there iluvtrekking.
We found your cache **"Hillarys a good name for a duck"** at 11:56:00 AM today. This cache makes our find count 14711.
We usually start the day off by nominating a cache some distance away from our camp site and then take a route that is mostly determined by the next closest cache according to our GPS. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip around the area & ended up finding quite a variety of container types, and sizes hidden along our route.
We found 11 caches today & DNF'd 1. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.
