Logs
A couple of muggles practicing on the courts, but they were too focussed to notice us looking around here 
Looked up and around, even looked down (in case it had dropped), but couldn't find it anywhere [:o)]. There was one spot that looked really good for a cache, but our hopes were dashed when we found it empty
.
We think this one is missing, so will keep watch until others find it before coming back
.
Thanks JJ52.

Don't know if it's still in place but Dr Owl & I gave it a good look, although by torch light...no cache located here tonight
It was dark and they stopped looking after reading the logs, but add another DNF to the list.
It's been more than two and a half years since our last logged DNF. I'm not sure if we had any other attempts since then on this cache.
We'd resigned ourselves to the fact that this cache just wasn't going to be found by us, but [GeosportZ 2016](http://geocaching.com.au/dragonzone/game/geosportz2016/challenges/) has thrown a spanner in the works. Challenge number "22 - Shooting" requires a geocacher to find their closest un-found cache to their home.
So today we returned, and after the local feral kids cleared out, we spent a good deal of time scouring this overgrown feral weed for the cache. One thing we did find, was a lot of old rusty nails embedded into the tree. Sadly though, we could not locate a cache.

Tuesday night caching with geodad and geobro 
What a gorgeous night to be out and about: cool temperature after a hot day, a gentle breeze blowing, clear skies and lots of stars made for fantastic caching [^]
Oh and the usual pick on locus cache moments occurred of course
Cheeky males
2 DNFs but 8 cache finds and some of those finds were the pesky 
caches that I see above me everytime I travel down the Southern Expressway
DNF! Our first DNF for the night and despite an extensive search, we could not find a cache

assuming its the same style of hide as " what is that green rock " I believe its gone again
Good camo. First pass round GZ I missed it completely. The 2nd time round I saw something slightly different from the rest and a quick flick revealed what I was looking for. Thanks for the recent maintenance. 12/11/2015, 18:12 Find #1082
On a maintenance run this morning and yes the cache is gone.
Have now replaced the cache covered with natural camo.
PLEASE REPLACE THE CAMO AS FOUND SO THE HIDE IS NOT COMPROMISED.
All ready to be found again.

Well, I found the Olive Tree. then looked around for a cache.
Unfrotunately, I couldn't see one anywhere. It's possible that I missed it, but after reading the other three DNF's, one of which was a previous finder, I'm inclined to think it's missing .
I had four DNF's in this series today, so perhaps someones been deliberately removing them.
Or I'm just hopeless.

Walked past this cache that we had found on the 3rd March 2015 but it was not in the place we had previously found it, we looked in other possible hides but to no avail. May have been moved.
Aussie Mark made this find and did it in his sneaky way... Hmmm, always suspicious when he goes quiet. TFTC JJ52.
Nearing the end of our caching journey from the hills to the coast,
with CPWanderer and Aussie M&M.
Mr M completed his sneaky caching moves and had cache in hand,
much to Mrs M dismay.
Clever hide JJ52

Incredible camo and it was through sheer luck and poking around with my torch that I managed to find it at all. It looks identical to the wood around it! TFTC
Went and checked on this one today. It seems that there may have been 2 caches here at one time as I found the improvised container with one of my logs that had been found out in the open. [?]
I have now removed that container and log.
The cache previously replaced by me is still in its original hide waiting to be found.
Please replace the natural camo so the hide is not compromised.
Happy hunting.

Ahh, thought we logged this one on Tuesday arvo, better late than never. Also thought we had found the whole group of these but overlooked this one for some reason, so here we are.
Keeping our daily streak alive this was a little detour on the way home, interesting cammo but it works,
.
Thanks JJ52 for the cache and a little wander through the park.
Signed the log and replaced the cache away safe and sound.

We didnt find the original container. However, we did find the paper all over the ground next to the tree. Looked fairly recent as it would have blown away otherwise. We rebundled it back up and improvised a container. Goodluck
No luck here today - searched all the hidey holes that I could access but no luck today. I'm sure it was right in front of me - maybe next time!
Quick find... It was just on the ground next to the tree. Stuck it in a hole. Thanks for the hunt.
Turns out we didnt check quite as closely as we thought. Back again after reading other recent posts, and ruing that we hadn't spotted it before. TFTC! Very good hide
Pretty sure we looked in just about every little spot that it could have been but couldn't find it in the olive tree. We assume that it is still there somewhere? Really enjoyed finding the rest of the caches along the bikeway so we were disappointed not to find this one.
Have now replaced this one. Please replace natural camo so that the hide won't be compromised and it will last for others to find. Thanks.
Will be checking on these soon, seems there has been someone removing a few from this bikeway.
Think this ones grown legs again ..pretty sure I found the place where it was but no cache
Looks like this one has gone, have replaced with more camo. Please leave exactly as found. Thanks.
Spent a bit of time looking around but had to leave empty handed after a phone call.
Found during a very pleasant visit to the southern suburbs. No-one around today allowing for a quick search. Thanks for the cache JJ52!
Found whilst finding a few on Sunday morning with Team Waldron
Great spot, cool cache, found easily

A morning's caching with The White Dog Gang.
We luckily beat the rain and found 20 caches for the moprning.
Just as the hint said it would be.

Returned to Adelaide for Christmas and muggle daughter was determined to find this one. We had both checked the hiding place, and yet another check led to a find-finally. TFTC
Stopped by tonight to find cache has been muggled again. Will try once more before moving it. Have replaced cache and covered with natural camo. Please replace this camo to avoid it being muggled again. Thanks and happy hunting.
A DNF for us.
The hint was of no assistance at all. I'd say it's a non-hint. Or maybe it's just that we seem to have really bad luck with micro caches hidden on trees.

Three pairs of eyes looking could not find it. Gave up when the mosquitoes moved in.
Out doing some cache maintenance and on checking this one it has been muggled. Found a couple of pages torn from the log book but nothing else.
Cache is now a micro and in place waiting to be found.

It's an olive tree... Doh!
