Found Froggy Friends – C. No cache body or log book. Only the found the lid with C= ? Photo log to CO TFTH Mistraluna.
we started caching with our family under the name clan-wallace but now it is time to have our own identity, hence embarking on a marathon re logging exercise.
I was in the area and needed a cache to keep my streak going. Luckily this was a nice easy find

Def had to take of the shoes and socks for this one took note of the details but no idea if I have with others in the series! Tftc
found it, shoes got soaked due to the recent rain so it was a case of finding a way around all the water, glad we didn't give up TFTC
Loving this series. Turned around at one stage to see a big kanga looking ay me. Bit scary really.
Up to Mandurah to do a few caches today. Thanks for bringing here in this series around this area.TFTC
Dragged muggle partner up this way to be my driver and helper while I add some more smileys to my total
Was glad this one wasn't a long walk to get to. A quick find by partner while I thought it may have been somewhere else at the structure
Find 17/20 and 3 dnf

This is my 4th find of the series over the last 12 months. At this rate I should have it done early 2015. I like the new location. Thanks.
Second time lucky... But it's easier to find when there IS a cache to find. However this little frog did a vanishing trick first time round ... then after using a life line he decided to show himself. I'm sure I checked that spot thoroughly before, but there he was. Just one more frog left now...
Thanks foe the cache mistraluna.

Have moved this one to a new location - maybe not as picturesque, but this little froggy should now be safer from muggles.
Checked out the lay of the land here first, but as there were a couple of muggles on the nearby play equipment, moved onto the nearby froggie first.
It was almost dark by the time I came back, muggles gone, and so had the cache I think. Confirmed hiding place with owner before leaving.
The paperbarks here are suffering quite a bit of denuding by searching cachers, which is very sad to see!

What an interesting variety of water birds! - even a black swan! Found after a bit of a search. TFTC, Mystraluna
Found on a perfect day for caching. Thanx Mistraluna.

This ended up being our nemesis cache in this series. We were hoping to find them all so we could log the finale but it wasn't to be After reading previous logs we were prepared with plenty of insect repellant so even though we saw plenty of mozzies we remained bite free
I kept an eye out for muggle activity...the neighbours across the park were out the front watering their garden.... while brave geohubby poked around in the long grass and trees for about twenty minutes but we must have lost our geocaching mojo because this one eluded us
We still thoroughly enjoyed searching for and finding all the other cute frogs. Many thanks for the hide Mistraluna [^]

He he ha ha one more in the bag nice quick find but had to high tail it out of there as I was about to be taken away by mosquitoes TFTC mistraluna
Had a bit of spare time today so decided to revisit this one as last one needed in this series. A quick search and the prize was soon in hand. Can't believe we missed it the first time. Thanks Mistraluna for a great series of "Froggy Friends". Just need to put the info together to find the mystery cache now.

40 DEGREES was the anticipated temperature today but that wasnt going to deter us from getting a smilie here! Turned out it was 41 degrees and stayed over 37 for many hours. Sunscreen, Bushmans and plenty of water was the order of the day.
Hmmm well we didn't find this cache we both searched in all the spots that presented themselves despite our GPS wanting us to search in the neighbours yard [B)]
No luck for us today.

Had a good look around but couldn't find it. Mozzies were bad. Will have to try again later.
Heading south after spending the weekend in Perth so wanted to get this series off our 'to do list'. The local council workers were near gz mowing when we arrived but we were able to stealthily get close to gz, however our gps was telling us gz was over the neighbouring fence in the vicinity of their gazebo. Quickly called the CO who confirmed where we should be looking and so were able to locate the container without calling attention to ourselves by the council workers or the neighbours who were in their backyard. Our co-ords were 407 & 261.

This froggy friend has hopped away, probably with a bit of help from a muggle. Have a replacement ready to go, just need to find a safer location. Could cachers PLEASE take care to use stealth and rehide the caches well so that muggles don't find them. Thanks
I decided to have a day of geocaching in the mandurah area today. Skippy 46, geodaughter Kristybelle and her 6 year old son came along as well. We had a great day with no DNFS. This one took a lot of searching and i even had to PAF. Once the info was written down and i dragged the grandson away from the water we were off to the next one. TFTC Mistraluna
What better way to spend a sunny Sunday than to go geocaching.
So with OOH YEH & Kristybelle, we set out to make a dent in the Mandurah area.
After a long search, OOH YEH, PAF and we were able to add another smiley face to our list.

After having some lunch waterside, this was the next closest cache for us. We found the froggy friend without to much trouble after looking around the tree first TFTC Mistraluna, clue noted and we were on to the next
While heading to a nearby conservation area for some night caching, a detour was made to make a start on this series. Thanks for the cache.
could only do a few of the series, but will be back to complete....quick find and photo for future reference....cheers Mistraluna
We decided to use our evening walk to grab Froggies A to C as it looked to be an easy distance to cover before dark.
Although we drive along the main road into this area each week we had not previously wandered into the suburb and once again we were pleasantly surprised at the park area geocaching took us to. There was lots of bird life around the ponds and as dusk approached the frogs started up in full song which was quite appropriate given the caches we were after.
This one had us searching all sorts of places for some time. In the end it was in an obvious place if you have done some other caches by the CO - we just didn't remember what we did a couple of weeks ago
This was cache number 990 so only 10 to go to the big 1000.
Thanks for the cache Mistraluna and excuse for a different path for our evening walk. [^]

Found with 1Qseeker in stealth mode. Couple of Muggles enjoying their yard and park view.
Took TB Shark to move along.
