Found a piece of bark and what looks like the hiding place of a cache square on the GPS (circular impression in the grass/leaves right next to the tree trunk) looks like the Geoker found it first.
Stumbled across this one, wasn’t actually looking for it, while exercising as a break from lockdown. No pen so couldn’t sign log
A bit of a bush stroll after a social distancing coffee! Found it. our first foray into the world of geocaching.
First find for the Day 2 excited kids. Thanks for an easy but fun spot for a cache
Out today on the kayaks looking to pick up a couple of caches on the wonny, this was the last one for the day, he coordinates were spot on which made for a quick find, dropped off a tb tftc
While getting ready to find a pirate I spotted this nearby. Nice and quick.
TFTC.

Found on foot, no need for a boat. Pen in container doesn't work so I couldn't sign. Thanks for the cache
On the way home from an airport drop off, this was number 13 of 16 and not long before the rains set in. Super quick PnG as slightly bigger than a small, barely even needed to turn off the engine.
#2354 came for a walk near here after a bit of an early morning storm soon got to GZ and saw the cache then the hard part seeing how close I can get without getting wet. Soon got the and extracted it from its camo
With cache in hand we signed the log and replaced as found but added another bit of camo so not as easy to spot. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for bringing me to the area and thanks for placing the cache deemacvee

Didn’t need boat as low tide.. son says thanks for the black pendant ! Lovely relaxing area for a picnic...
Second of three finds for the morning while out exploring Bonnet Bay with the geokiddies.
We strolled over to this one from Batter Up! All while listening to the kookaburras laughing in the trees above us and watching a pack of ducks waddle by on this glorious winter day. Arriving at GZ we spent some time scratching around until we spied the obvious and success, CIH! We added our name to the log, swapped some swag and returned as found. All in good order here.

Find #319
There was no problem locating this cache as the coast was quite clear for a search. Only two muggles were launching boats from the nearby boat ramp and it was easy to go looking. The cache was quickly located and the container and contents were all found to be in good condition. The log was soon signed and all was put back where it had been found. Thanks to deemacvee for placing this cache in a very pleasant location.
Didn't bring a boat , so I was glad we could still access this cache on foot. TFTC deemacvee
Took our family-sedan kayak out for it's maiden voyage ... low tide and not game to get phone out of it's waterproof bag out on the river yet, but Little Miss Geokid was pleased as punch to make her first find when we finished packing up. TFTC Deemacvee, we like these not-too-tricky ones for we beginners!!
#114 Quick diversion back around the oval and made for another quick find with no one around, again the ones I like. TFTC deemacvee
Another find in this series as we explore Bonnet Bay on foot.
Another nice location by the river

Geofiance's first find! Traded the cutest ladybug clothes pin with a hand painted seashell.
Plastic bag is ripped down the side. Suggest replacing.
Great find for the day! Thank you!

What a beautiful spot, thank you had a nice walk around before the hunt. Lots of muggles today so was hard to be inconspicuous. TFTC.

Love a swampy find. Missmorty carefully removed camo (not a fan of spiders) and no one was home. TFTC.
Easy parking on a weekday. After a short little walk missmorty soon spied the hide. TFTC.
Really pretty area! Not too hard if you look well enough reading the activity helped us
Kiwi grandpa and Aussie grandson scored three in this reserve on the last day of 2017. All straightforward caches on a beautiful afternoon.
Having secured (and beat) the average of one find per day for the year, noticed only 10 more finds are needed to reach the next century (1600). So with Smigglepot's help, we visited ten caches in the Bonnet Bay, Como, Jannali area on this searing 35 degree++ day.
- - -
This is the 8th of the 10 finds.
I presume this cache could be a lot trickier after a rain or at high tide (don't know if it comes this far up river). But today, no canoe needed.

TFTC! Beware. Some nasty things have been washed up and on the ground. Tread carefully. No. 6 for the day
Found the container easily and after signing the log replaced it back as best as I could with camo.
Quick find after taking a nice walk along from the nearby park. Visited TBs and left swag, thanks deemacvee.
After finding the cache I watched on as a family was putting their boat in the water and the dad lost his thong in the water during the process - not sure they had the mojo for it today.
Gps was sending me in circles but eventually made the find. Found with Jeanovanwam millymoo13 hails13 zooter10
13/08/16. 10:33 AM. Cache #4086.
2nd of 8 today - Bonnet Bay & Jannali.
8 doesn't seem like many finds in a 4-hour plunder of two more Shire suburbs, but there was some serious scrambling in rough terrain for some of them. I managed to clear out the whole lot, except for one partially completed multi in each suburb ("Confound the Language" in Bonnet Bay and "Kai'mia Way" in Jannali). Actually the 2 extra WP finds for 'Confound' made it more like 10 finds.
After a long start at "Hey, Buddha!" (& securing a Mission GC souvenir), I paused for a coffee at the local shops and spent some time solving the first part of "Confound the Language". Coffee finished, time to get back on the caching trail, this time with one of the easier ones of the day. i parked with under 50m to walk to the cache, spotted the camo easily and got the cache. Signed, replaced, then off to "Swank Bank". TFTC.

Nice quick & easy find while on my way a little early to the nearby CITO Event. What a beautiful area - never been down here before! TFTC
Woohoo!
After 2 DNF's for the day I found this one. A nice little park that I didn't know was here. TFTC.

Parked the car near GZ and headed over towards the spot. I've never been to this park before so it was good to explore a new area. Walked in circles initially and then spotted the large cache hiding. The hint was a big clue. Signed the log and then re-hid carefully, so hope that inquisitive muggles stay away. TFTC

This was our first find, very excited, took a red soldier and put in a purple pencil.
Found by Bruce on a good weather morning. Reasonably quick find. Container needs another camo paint.
Quick park and grab. Very exposed at the place the hint said. Log was a bit damp but with lots of space to log finds. Put it in a clip lock bag but it could do with some drying out soon. Not much there for a good sized cache so I dropped in a toy soldier and shoehorn. Gave it some camo so muggles might not see it so easily. TFTC. #161
