The cache is made and in place but I don't want to submit it yet because the blending in process is incomplete. I need another three weeks please.
This cache will be replaced in three weeks time (max) once it blends in with the surrounds.
12:25:00 PM. Met up with our friends Jason and Janine to catch up and grab a couple of caches. Didn't realise it has been 3 years since they left the east coast. The largest one of these we have seen. Signed log. Thanks duck 43 for placing this cache.
I was all over this cache, had my hand on it within thirty seconds, it was a very clever hide, something just didn't seem quite right about where i was looking so I investigated and it paid off. Definitely worth the walk down from the jetty to pick up this cache if you're in the area.
Awarded a FP, I really enjoyed this one

Elrin found this one almost immediately. I was standing back, trying to get a wide view of the area and suddenly she's all "here it is!" On the upside I got to struggle watching her extract the cache from the camo and then get it back in. A lovely find for us before we stopped in at the cafe for some lunch (can recommend the lurid coloured slushies!)
Thanks Duck
Thanks Duck
Luckily a quick find as muggles were everywhere, grabbed it and made a quick dash back to the car. Quite fiddly taking the jar out but it was managed. Had some brekky at the nearby cafe. TFTC

Did try for another cache to fill todays date on my calendar but those darn muggles just wouldn't leave the area so had to give that one a miss
Came to this one and parked about 25m away
As usual muggle and I had a guess on where/what we think it will be. Well I guessed right , I just chose wrongly and it was muggle that grabbed the cache.
A quick sign of log then waited for muggles to walk passed before putting back
Thanks for the super quick find as have seen similar elsewhere so made it very easy

Out today with Jet from SykesKids scooting along the foreshore and picking up some solved puzzle and a couple duck43s.
after having something to eat nearby came past this great inventive cache.

Ok 2 duck finds to geo son tonight. Lovely part of the river. TFTC. Think we might go back to Rookwood with our duck eyes!
Out on a caching run with the Machman. Decided the night before to meet up and start our lap of the bridge at Deep Water Point. Headed South from here then back up along the freeway before returning. Good day for me with 25 finds and only 2 DNF's.
Quick find here, great way to start proceeding. TFTC.

Found it on an early morning bike ride. Probably the easiest duck43 cache I have found. Most are much harder. Probably made easier due to the fact that I have recently seen a YouTube video about how these types of caches can be made. Very enjoyable find nonetheless. Thanks for the cache.
Headed out this morning to grab as many of the caches around the river as we could. Goorjus69 and I parked at the southern end of the Mt Henry bridge and we were joined halfway around by T-Mack2. Very enjoyable morning out on the bikes, I found 18 with 3 DNFs. TFTC duck 43
Like every other duck cache it had me thinking. But we found it relatively quickly considering what we've spent on the other caches. Tftf Duck
On our third attempt, and with us getting frustrated, wifey got cluey and discovered the well hidden cache. TFTC duck
BISSRA found it. Nice hide. Pick up the little car at the same time. Duck43 you are a legend TFTC
We were lucky to find this one on our way home from visiting my M-I-L. I have found similar before - however your hide was very well done what I loved most was my 22yr old muggle son admitting that this is a very clever hide SL TFTC duck43. Adding to our favourites because you imnpressed my son
Took the family for a ride around the bridges and managed a few caches along the way. TFTC
2nd visit here. Fairly quick find after a lovely family breakfast at the cafe. This one is very clever. Lots of ants and muggles to contend with but this is a classic duck 43: almost impossible at first, but then you put your duck thinking-cap on and say, "Why didn't I see that before?"
Found this one while taking a walk along foreshore. Another good construction by duck 43. geokids are enjoying these caches too which is unusal for my kids. TFTH
Currently overseas. Appears it hasnt been replaced properly.Will fix on my return .
Walked around GZ with IQO thinking to many muggles about to attempted this one when the cache was spotted lying on the ground out in the open. Placed back out of sight. No Camo.[?]
Might need checking. TFTC Duck43.

Surprised nobody has picked it up and thrown it in the bin! Easy find, zero camo
Too many ducks in a day. We obviously have the hang of them because spelluncle walked up and grabbed this straight away (much to his shock). Another fabulous camo. TFTC.
Didn't realise I found it when I did, thought I had broken something when I attempted to unscrew something! Very clever, duck43, tftc

Yay finally got one on the group ride (but only cos we rode off ahead)
Great finish!!
Thanks duck43
Great finish!!

We met up with several other cachers to grab a few smileys around this area. There was a great variety of caches and hiding spots and we ended up having no DNF's and about 25 found . We were all on cycles and the loop took just under four hours
This was the last of the day for us and a reasonably quick find TFTC duck43. Now off to have a nice cold drink.

Headed up towards perth today to meet up with a bunch of other cachers to tackle some of the hides up here, in Duck country.
We had a very successful day with 25 finds all up, taking about 4 hours on the geo-cycles.
The amount of thought and work that has gone into these caches, is nothing short of amazing. Thanks for the cache Duck 43

A great day and a great group of peoples for a ride around the bridges picking up a few duck 43's and a few others.
Lucky last for a great day with some great peoples and my geofriend m4yb's 1000th find yippee!!
Thanks duck 43 and so glad that m4yb has one of yours for her 1000th find.

A nice afternoon planned out riding the river from Canniong Highway, down to Mt Henry bridge.
The crew consisted of Kyzabra, Hiddo, Jasenjanine, MNS13, Jinta29, M4YB, Megawatt60, Granett, Jnr cachers Ceekay2003, Justintime13, Dangermouse09, and a couple of muggle kids as well.
It must have been an ominous look for anyone else on the bike path today. All the people stopping at random locations.
This was our last find for the day. A nice simple one (by comparison) and a 1000 finds for M4YB. Well done Maddy.

Had a great day today on a joint bike ride around the bridges, about twenty bikes in total, including the kids. According to my Garmin I did 12 km at an average speed of 9.1km/h over a period of nearly 4 hours, with a well earned ice-cream at the end!
I got introduced to the "duck 43" hide style today and was glad to have the extra eyes about because I think I would have been struggling on my own.
I am able to claim about 23 finds in all with a couple of puzzle caches to solve before logging them officially.
Safety in numbers definitely works while geocaching, on arrival at a GZ the muggles end up being the ones feeling weird as a group of twenty or so people arrive in their area and seem to be on a mission for something. I saw a few fishermen and walkers scratching their heads this afternoon.
Another clever duck 43 hide here, made all the more better for witnessing m4yb's 1000th find. Well done Maddy a great effort.
Another posthumous favourite here.

Found during our group bike ride on both sides of the Canning River, and what a great day this was: perfect weather, and a great group of enthusiastic geocachers of all ages.
This one will remain forever a notable cache for me: not only the last cache of our great day but also my 1,000th find! Thanks for this cache duck43 and all the wonderful ones we have found during today's ride, and previously on the Swan River foreshore & Wireless Hill!

Just stopped in for a loo break and noticed this cache nearby without too many muggles lurking, a quick and easy find in such a beautiful location. TFTC

We arrived two days ago and started today with a walk around the bridges. This was the first one.
It took us 10 seconds to find the cache. Great hide, fav point from me.
However, logbook is completely full.
We can replace it the next days when doing the walk again.
Thanks and best regards from Germany

Out for the day with the dingy & donut for some post Australia Day fun at Deep Water Point. The family had fun puzzling over this one. Great camo!
Three of us Out on electric scooters soaking up the sunshine and awesome scenery and activities going on. I have never bn along this fore shore before! TFTC loved this one. Fav point for u !!!
I think where getting better at finding your caches! Geobrother found it in a matter of seconds
FlyingPigSquadron has landed! Another great duck challenge! TFTC&H duck 43
Had a couple of hours to spend caching this afternoon so decided to go Duck hunting.
This was another duck 43 classic.
This was another duck 43 classic.
What a wonderful way to end this fine caching day! Blue sky, a gentle breeze and one of duck 43's ingenious hides! It wasn't too difficult for us to locate. We were sure to capture this cache in one of our short films (for our eyes only). There was a pair of sunglasses nearby. The only questions I asked myself were "How?" and "Why?". TFTC duck 43!!
I spotted the cache, right at the start .... even touched it .... but I changed my mind. We had used the phone to get to gz and while I was getting out the gps ... (I didn't trust the phone) .... the Kat found the cache!!!! Amazing!! A really sneaky hide!! Thank you duck 43!! We love your caches.
TFTC a easy find, made even more sweet as some good friends albeit new to geocaching couldn't find this one.
Muggles all over the place.. it is Monday...I thought it would be easier to find but not today
