No luck. Just went round and round in circles! Stood right at co ordinates and couldn't see anything that matched the hint or the spoiler photo.
Thanks to the photo hint we found GZ but even with the additionl hint I found it hard. I gave up after Miss 6 decided to test the electric fence with a stick (insert eye roll). Today was not to be a successful caching day with the kids so will have to return alone!
This is one of the few trees I might be able to identify, but the leaves were too far away. I was about to tap into the tree to taste the sap, but there were too many muggles around, so no cache for me.
Happy New Year We decided to go back and have a look again and Bingo there it was.Mr ABCDF4 found it
Found the maple but cache nowhere to be found. It didn't help that our phone battery was about to die!
Replaced again today - the chicken up and moved a bit further from the muggles. Location updated and hint updated too. Happy caching - and enjoy your walk!

Will sort out in a week or two once we return home. Cache was replaced, but is gone again.
I couldn't find muggled cache, so have replaced. The cache is a bigger than ideal for this hiding spot, so please try and replace and hide the best you can.
Definitely muggled HOWEVER from the pic taken 2 days ago we might not have even found. Hopefully the owner can rectify? TFTC (if it is what we think we found)
I'm sorry to say your cache has been muggled 
found it strewn, open, in plain sight. Have hidden it back where i thought it came from, unfortunately no log to sign.

Out & about enjoying the last few days of our summer break. This one was on our hit list as we had searched unsuccessfully for it previously (although did not log a DNF, as we were still pretty fresh back then!). Spotted fairly quickly by utilising the map more than the coordinates, and due to the camo starting to come off. Swapped an alien for a frog. SL & returned to it's hiding spot. Such a great area here - we really enjoyed ourselves. TFTC!
Well camouflaged. GPS didn't work so well on phone, kept jumping between 1m and 17m even though I was almost standing on it. Very happy with my first Geocache find!
Second time looking for this one and still couldn't find it. Maybe it will be third time lucky. I shall return.
Oh boy we (shellabellabee and me) had a good look today - had a quick look last time we were here too but didn't find it - but today it was a thorough look and no luck! Have to get the geocaching experts out (our muggle hubbies!) to help us.....
Thanks to the hint, it was a pretty easy find. What a nice park! Will have to take the kids here sometime. TFTC
We were here before the sunset, and wow can it be dark in the bamboo tunnel. Almost gave up on finding this cache as the GPS had us a bit away from the cache location and on one last sweep of the area the cache was found. TFTC
Good challenge, walked past it a few times. nearly got muggled too but successful in the end.
nearly got muggled too but successful in the end.In the park for the Easter Egg hunt, looked for this while we were hiding our booty, but alas no luck. Back for a second look after the event with a hint from some fellow attendees. Not sure how I miseed it the first time even with a panda with us. Glad to add a smilie. TFTC
In panda heaven but it didn't make finding the cache any easier we had two goes at this today. TFTC
Found on our arboretum adventures today, had looked for a while and then 'oh, here it is!' TFTC!
Happy to be caching in Hamilton as we pass through heading northward.
More avian caching fun! Cluck, cluck!
Straightforward find. All in order; log signed, cache safely re-hidden.
TFTC found with team cacher Sweet P too
The Turtle strikes again!

Girls adventure! Awkward moment as we are taking picture some guy wanders right past us ...
I knew it had to be here somewhere.... somewhere... gps was going all around the place... after about 5min of searching & maybe 500 steps on my pedometer I finally spotted it
Found ok. Found Maybel here so took her for a walk dropped her off else where. Didn't find any other chicky's. hopefully they are hiding in the clue caches. We have visited the park on many occasions but it was fun as the caches took us on a totally different route to what we normally take.
Cool cache with my friend.. Found trackable that we're tKing on an adventure. TFTC
