I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, duck 43, requesting additional time.

An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.

Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

23-Jan-21
Wow my eyes actually worked on this one. About time I started pulling my weight. Great. TFTC duck 43
 
05-Jan-21
Didn't take too long to see something a little unusual..I investigated and happily found the cache. Good camo as usual! Log signed and replaced. The log was a bit damp, so water must be getting in...but still easily usable. Tftc
 
24-Nov-20
I had tried for this one once before but without any success. Today I came armed with some new information that helped me track this one down. This time it only took 5 minutes of searching before it was spotted. Its a good morning so far.

29-Feb-20
Out and about with I C Nothing and Meme28 caching before today’s Leap Day event. Found after an extensive search of GZ. Great camo and definitely Muggleproof! TFTH!
 
29-Feb-20
Out with Kapelula, Meme28 and the geokids on a duck run before heading to the leap year event. Took a few minutes but we found it. Nice camo!
 
29-Dec-19
Another great one! We put it back the way it should be, which was not the way we found it
 
28-Oct-19
Almost gave up but just before I did I saw something that looked a little odd and decided to give it a poke and a prod.
Thank you Duck for all your wonderful caches, you’re just marvelous!
 
17-Oct-19
Wow. Very clever. Looks so real. I did have to think twice before I checked it.
 
30-Sep-19
Found
 
30-Sep-19
Definitely muggle proof. The geograndkid stumbled upon it just as he was getting bored. Nice hide. TFTC
 
23-Sep-19
Very sneaky TFTC
 
08-Sep-19
Found on a caching day in Perth with the Copwats. Quick find by Mrs Copwat once at GZ as she was admiring a blue tongue lizard TFTC Smile
 
08-Sep-19
We thought that this may take some time on our day out with the Crumps luckily Mrs Copwat saw a Blue tongued lizard and while she stood fascinated by it she spotted the cache, pure luck we all thought but it was good to have a quick find here Thanks for going the extra mile to create an interesting cache hopefully the Lizard will move on and not give any more hints away. TFTC
 
06-Sep-19
Found 14:44 6/9/19 while enjoying a walk around Wireless Hill. I love the container. Thank you duck 43 for the cache and bringing me to this location.
 
07-Jul-19
Indeed muggle proof. Found fairly quickly. Nice hide TFTC

Nice hide tftf!
 
30-Jun-19
Instead of walking down the hill we got lazy and drove around the block. It was too cold and wet to make a stretch of the legs an enjoyable concept.

We set ourselves a 10 minute limit because we had a dinner booking in town to make. It wasn’t looking good and I knew the alarm on the phone was going to spoil our day.

In the end I kicked up the cache and yelled out to Mrs Woodyrothwell to stop the clock. It was a nice end to our caching day around town. tftc
 
25-Jun-19
After the virtual was found Chwiliwr and I went for a walk around the park to do some of the caches I had never done and to find the newly published one.

This was one of the excellent caches found.

Thanks duck 43 for the cache.
 
28-May-19
Out and about with Geodog today. This one was definitely juggle proof. Tool a little while but got there in the end.

Thanks for the cache duck43.
 
18-May-19
What can I say? Nothing that wouldn't give it away, another well constructed duck hide. 3 for today, on a roll now, surely a dnf to come

With our bicycles on tour through Perth and along the Swan River. It is a fantastic landscapes and we like it to collect some caches.
We want to find some Duck 43 Caches but the search was not easy. At least we can log, Hurra.
Thank you and greetings from Germany send Moorhelmi
 
26-Apr-19
Jeez, this was nearly impossible... found it by sheer luck more than anything else, haha. Worth a fav for the design.
 
13-Apr-19
Thank you! Headed out caching with papillon367 and Photo-Play. Another ridiculously sneaky one. Again, it blended in to its surroundings so well I didn't find it until I started some random poking after receiving having the general location narrowed down..
 
13-Apr-19
Found it. TFTC duck43. Our with Ulyssia and papillon367. Perfect day for a duck run. Another master piece, another fav.
 
13-Apr-19
Out and about again with Thro60clan to try and collect the last few points needed for the next souvenir. Had come past after finding the cache up the hill and searched down what we thought was the geotrail. Very misleading so we came up empty handed and moved on to the next one. After asking for some help from the previous finders we then returned and were able to find the cache while thinking like a duck. Tftc very clever!
 
13-Apr-19
Searched ages for this one. Had admitted defeat when we met up with some other cachers who gave us a helping hand.
Found this one with thronsy.4
Amazing! (As always Duck )
TFTC
 
09-Apr-19
Struggled to get the gps to settle here and took some learnings from some previous duck hides to systematically search around the GZ area and surrounds, with nothing presenting itself I turned to head back to the car and as I did I spied the cache right in front of me.

Thanks duck 43 for placing this cache for me to find, this is find number 1442 for me.
 
30-Mar-19
Very creative. TFTC
 
05-Mar-19
Nope, defeated here.
 
09-Feb-19
Well, took about 20 minutes before I spotted the upturned cache. Unfortunately, it appears the muggle proof cache, was muggled - whether it be by an animal or human. The camo looked like it had been chucked with the container not within the camo. I signed the log, put the container back into the camo and rehid it where I would suspect it is supposed to go.

Cheers duck, another fav coming your way! Big Grin
