Logs
I wished i had read the logs prior to finding the cache As i would have at least got a waterproof log sheet to pop in the container despite having no lid. Unfortunately, it took too long, and was difficult to cross the road, that i wasn't keen to do it another 2 times. It was located 13m from gz.
Heyyy! The god of Pepsi here! Found it, its my first everyone! Its a biiiiiiit slimy #01
Look under the wall, in each metal poles but couldn't find anything. Looked between the Rainbow Loraket and the bush turkey.
Found it TFTC Out on a overcast Sunday with Mrs wooness and daughter. Team wooness NSW Needs attention asap
My beautiful Mumsy lives across the road so figured it was time I logged this one. Easy to find after reading previous logs… SQUAWK! Team Ireland
After reading the previous log, I made a quick find and signed the rusty bit of paper. Thanks for the fun Treking Trev
After attending a session at Burpengary Mens Shed, came to look for this cache, looked where GPSr pointed and reading hint, nothing to be seen, so crossed back over road into shade, read some logs, AHA it has crept a few metres, my GPSr showed 15 metres away, but cache is still on velcro, so must be what I neededThanks Treking Trev lid is missing but otherwise all is good
We weren’t having any luck here even with the hint but on reading previous logs we moved quite some distance down and made the find so don’t know if It’s a case of cache creep or not.. Owner might want to check on that . TFTC .
After searching close to where the coordinates put us, and in accordance with the hint, we came up empty-handed. After we looked through previous logs, we discovered that everyone mentioned that the coordinates for quite some distance away, and that it was between two other birds (the parrot and the cockatoo instead) so we moved 13 m South, and made a quick find. I always appreciate the talent of the people that paint these murals. Even my stick figures are questionable. Thanks Treking Trev
There was lawn mowing happing whilst we were looking but we still had a good look and couldn’t find it
After the 'For love of Tupperware' event, I joined forces with chamad before heading back home to the Gold Coast.
It was lovely grabbing a few extra caches for the day in this nice area.
Thank you to Treking Trev for placing this cache for our enjoyment

Off today to an event to show my support to a great guy and to meet up with a few fellow cachers. OMGOODNESS what a HUGE turnout today was and with so many different types of watercrafts. There was a few kayaks lol; double seaters, singles, a blow up, a sit in and a couple of fold ups. Then there was a Stand Up Paddleboard, a tinnie, and a canoe. What an awesome time and this will ensure this type of event will continue. Well done Peppa for organising, it is a shame we will have to do it again for those extra caches not yet published. WHAT!
After the event, I went for a drive to Burpengary for an adventure lad and a few extra caches. I was joined by Snickersallan, we wondered around the area signing logs and checking out the new areas for us both.
OH MY, I had been here once before and stuck to the hint and left it at that, DNF. Back today and after seeing a few Finds, I went to look again. WHERE THE hell is this thing? Then I read some logs. Well, turns out the cords and the hint have moved. This one should be ok now if you read old logs, lol. Thanks for the cache, all good here, we signed the log and returned it as found.

Headed north for a few adventure labs, picking up a few caches that I passed.
A few meters out as per previous logs
Thank you

Day 1 of 3 of our trip from Caboolture South to Armidale.
We’ve discussed doing this trip for some time now and it’s a wonderful feeling to be doing it. I love the drive and I get to enjoy the experience with my beautiful fiancé.
Our plan for this trip was to find as many caches as possible and try and grab a cache in ever LGA on the way down to break our previous record, which is 5, and I think we smashed that!
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and enjoyed stopping off at each and every location along the way. It truely is a beautiful, scenic drive.
Thanks goes to the CO for placing this cache for us to enjoy.
Thanks for bringing us here.

This evening after dinner, I needed to take a drive north to Burpengary for a Gumtree errand, and with minimal rain about, I took a drive within the vicinity to pick up a few geocaches. There were a few nice reserves that I walked through under torchlight, and I managed to get caught by a passing rain cloud just as I was finishing off my plan of attack, so with a few last geocaches found, I called it a night to return home.
Despite it drizzling once I arrived at this location, I did enjoy the mural that had been painted along this wall. I used the hint and I thought it wouldn't take long to find, however after checking the logical spots, no cache was found. I then started to search other locations between the two features, and when that didn't yield anything, I then read back through past logs and expanded my search radius. I soon found the cache about 14 m away, with my GPS indicating the cache at S 27° 08.987' E 152° 58.665'. The hint consequently needs to be updated, and my suggestion would be to something like "between the parrot and cockatoo". The cache container's lid was missing, but otherwise the rest of the container and logbook were in good shape. I did like the attempt to plug the container body with foam to try to protect its contents better. I left the cache upside down in order to minimise water ingress. There are certainly a few aspects of this geocache that need attending to given the issues observed. Thanks Treking Trev for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

A great morning for caching in the area and this is one we found. We parked on the opposite side of the road and waited for a break in the traffic to cross over. We both went separate ways at GZ and the cache was soon spotted. The velcro is still holding it in place though the lid is missing. Thanks to the last finder the log was nice and dry. Thanks Treking Trev for this one.
Treking Trev I found your cache Mural on 14/9/2022, 5:25 pm. This is my find 4178 and find # 25 today. Broadened my search and found the cache. Placed a sheet of paper to sign. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN
i was here a few days ago and did not find it
i am back again today and still no success
i guess it may be gone, needs a CO check please.

Out for a day of random caches, and this was the next stop…
Once you ignore the hint, and broaden the search it’s a quick find… although as mentioned by the last couple of finders the cache is in need of some maintenance… there is no lid, no log and the container is full of water…
Tftc… adding a NM to bring this to the COs attention….

The container has no log, no lid and fills with water… the hint may need to be changed to reflect the current hide…
Crossing the road was difficult - underpass flooded and a very consistent flow of traffic. No problem to find. TftC.
Back in Dakabin for major Caravan Repairs. [xx(] After dropping our home on wheels into the repairer we decided to tackle a few caches to try and improve our spirits.
We found your cache and only had 1 DNF today and we also managed some shopping before the rain stopped play.

Heading past for a cache run in Caboolture, this was a quick stop and grab along the way. The logbook was soaking wet so we added a dry sheet of note paper and the cache seems to have moved a bit as it was not quite where the hint suggested. A check by the CO is probably needed. TNLNSL TFTC .
It’s amongst three birds not between two! Needs a new log, it’s gotten wet. TFTC
We chased this cache down as it fills one of our final 10 "hidden date" stats. I guess someone has noted before that it's no longer magnetic, but I didn't bother to read the logs! Found it after a short search. Thanks for the cache and cool spot!
Relogging found caches under the name Bonkersandshush to my other accountGAZKERSH.Thanks.Nice quick find while caching in the area Thanks for the cache

Hi. We went and found this geocache and the log was saturated with rusty water. Just letting you know because no body can sign the log. Thank you for your time.

How long does it take to find a mint tin in an area of very few possibilities? A lot longer than expected!!!!
I read the description and then the hint after a short search, and made the wrong assumption. What Trekking Trev calls these birds is different from me! Or maybe I mistook the lorikeet for the parrot? Anyway, the cache was made about 12m south of where I was directed, and between a lorikeet and a parrot, just near an unreal tree, as directed.

A quick stop in here for a well timed grab in between rushes of traffic. Log look is full I placed an extra sheet inside. Tftc
We got a few beeps looking for this one. Honed in on the hint without luck and then jodsta83 yelled out “found it!” a little further out than we’d been looking. TFTC!
Very busy road and a bit hot standing i. The sun. But we will be back another day
Not sure how we missed this the first time, maybe the hint put us off a bit. TFTC
Nicely hidden, unfortunately prior finders left lid-less cache face up without a lid, therefore full of water. With the coin bag that has holes??? Cache needs a little attention
Had a few misses this morning but this one quickly located. Log book exposed to elements, so plastic bag left. T4TC
Dodged the traffic to get to GZ. Was to have been our last for the day, but we struck out. According to our GPSr and the hints, we were in the right place, but couldn't find anything. Our eyes are dim ...
Our thanks anyway to Treking Trev.
