Sorry to say but I am currently isolated due to covid and I have not been able to replace the birdhouse, I do plan to as soon as I can but I will Archive this geocache until I can do so.
Came to the area to watch our geoson row in the Guildford to Garrett Rd race. As stated in other logs the birdhouse has fallen apart but still hides the cache for now.
Good fun to find. Glad we did it during winter as I imagine the place would be mosquito paradise during summer! Thanks for the hide.
Nice easy one just off the path. Nest box won’t last much longer so you might need to look on the ground soon!!
Out and about today and I decided to check the map to see what was nearby.
I find myself with time to kill so I stopped by here for a find.
This one needs some TLC.
Many thanks to λ lambda locator for placing and maintaining The Bird House. I found it, I signed it, and put it back as found.

We decided to let our GPS guide us for a while and this cache was one that we found today!

ICNothing and I cruised around the area picking up smilies. This one really needs some tlc…
Out with Meme28 today collecting some caches . This cache is a bit worse for wear now, it would have been good in it’s time.Thanks for placing for our enjoyment.
The bird house is a little worse for wear but cache is OK. Lid doesn't fit properly so may get wet in the rain. TFTC
Got eaten alive by mozzie but found it! Thanks for the hide!
Left some trinkets for the next kids to find.

TomTom brought me here when I was visiting nearby. The host certainly has seen better days. TFTC
Out and about while we're still allowed fresh air and exercise. 14 caches visited with 12 finds and 2 DNFs.
This was find 2 of the day. Think the airBnB rating for this one maybe in decline but an easy find in the grounds of the accomodation. TFTC TShannon

Bird house needs a reno but cache container is hidden nearby and in good condition. TFTC
Found it! We braved the trees and the long grass with our flip flops and shorts on (having come totally prepared, of course) we loved this one (although we didn’t enjoy the ants running across our feet as the log was signed. Leaving a fav point on this one as we loved it so much.
**Find #2912**
Nice easy find. Although I think it has had a muggle visit. The bird house is in bad shape. The cache was sitting in its perch but the log was found on the ground. May need some TLC.
Thanks **lambda locator**

Phone did not want to know about this one. Worked my way to where I thought it might be, turrned around and there it was. Looks like it has been there for quite a while. TFTC TShannon.
Looks like the structure has been damaged, maybe from recent storms. Still a cute hiding place. TFTC
Walked around in circles before the GPS settled and I spotted the hide. All good here and I grabbed the TB Kitty. TFTC
Out with piknik15 on an airport run and decided to grab a few smilies, so in between showers we made mad dashes for caches, this one we had to choose our path carefully as most parts very very wet and squishy, a great little hide that deserves a favourite TFTC
Out with parkacruz aka Nanny & Poppy to find some geocaches after getting Poppy from the airport TFTC
Nice quick grab before an airport pickup. Fortunately the area wasn’t as wet as I had expected.
On a rainy afternoon in the school holidays we found this amazing cache one of my favorites
A Quick find this morning before work and the storm! Grabbed the TB to move on its way. TFTC TShannon.
An interesting location. Dropped off the trackable we had just picked up.
Needed fifteen points desperately. This one fitted the bill nicely. Little bit snakey on a warm day but who cares! TFTC nice creative hide.
Great little cache, I love it. All is in good condition, log signed and returned. TFTC TShannon!
Came down here because it’s been awhile since I’ve done maintenance but it’s in good condition if you’re in the area I highly recommend checking out the toilets nearby it’s A piece of art
Walked through a few spider webs getting to this one, but a nice easy find on a nice warm morning. Signed log and replaced as found. Thanks for the cache.
Great hide and just enough room to drop of a travel bug I brought from Victoria, figured as so many loved it would be surely passed on. Merry travels
Saw this cool cache on approach. The kids and I were looking for caches to complete while we complete part of the swan river ramble activities. TFTC TAD
Nice warm morning , came up here to catch up with friends , seen there was a cache only 600m from their house so all piled in car and went on the hunt. My phone kept freezing and the sun getting hotter and starting to feel like they thinking im crazy but lycky they diwnloaded app and led us straight to it. Signed log smiles all round and off we went. Tftc!
Out looking at houses today, a little early, so to fill in time I noticed that there was a cache close by. Was careful where I was walking, apart from easy find. Grabbed TB Gargamel and dropped off r2d2. thanks for the cache. Love its rusticness
Cache is in good condition and an easy find just watch out for snakes as a fair bit of undergrowth around. Traveling Aus so dropped in a travel bug and TFTC.
Originally found under family caching name clan - wallace now branching out under own caching name
It must have been a lovely cache once.....but oh dear it is in a sad state of repair. Fortunately WebblyWA had come prepared. We replaced logbook, waterproof bag & the container....a complete renovation job in fact. Allgood to go. TFTC
A geo-rendez-vous had been planned with Clan Wallace and Webbly WA. I was the last to arrive and by then the reno job had started. A lovely idea, but the weather had not been kind to it. Luckily WebblyWA had a container on board and it did the job. TFTC!
I had read the previous logs on this one and had come prepared as this was our meeting point for mission Bassendean with Clan-Wallace and M4yb. The cache housing was found without issue once we worked out the right way in, but it was in a very sad and sorry state. Bits of swag were littered around and the log was no where to be seen as others before had mentioned. The stash note was still present and I love the effort that originally went int this one so provided it with a new container to store the swag and a new log bog so its good to go and ready for others to enjoy once more.
