We are out of the country and can't fix the cache, a previous log informed us it has been attacked by muggles. We are just working on finding out how to pass on ownership/sending out the geokids I looked after to rescue it
Accidentally found this today whilst visiting the local geese. Cache has been strewn around the island, box broken. Requires much attention and probable replacement. Don't think that the ducks would have done this, definitely the work of muggles.
Exciting! My first cache! Walked around a lot like a ninny before even finding the bridge! TNLN. TFTC!
Lovely little park. Great place for a hide. Just watch out for spikey things protecting it.
Great hiding place. this would be great place to bring our geo dog for a nice run.

What a cute first find for Zedaycee's birthday cache trip. What an awsome park. Thanks for bringing us here, pity we left our geodog at home...
Great quick find with geodad while looking at rose garden. Watch out for the nasty blackberries. 11 February 2016 11:54 am tftc
Picked up TB & left a few swaps. Had intended to drop off a TB, but could n't read the fine print tonight ! Will make a return visit with one soon.
#764 3:36pm TFTC... out for coffee with GeoMum, thought we'd make a quick grab and drop off a trackable I've had for WAY TOO LONG
First cache for a long time .. Found this cache however many muffles around so will be back to sign the log at a better time quake quack TFTC Jyetara
In the area tonight picking up a gumtree bargain. Taking the scenic route home collecting a few cache in the way. TFTC

I was coach captain as part of volunteer crew for Ride to Conquer Cancer, raising money for Peter Mack. After grabbing dinner, went for a walk and stretch the legs to find this cache. Thanks again!

Firstly, apologies for the late logging.
Found this with Leetalicious on a week's holiday on the Mornington Peninsula.
A great spot for a cache after a day at the craft market.
My thanks to Team Leithan for the cache and for bringing us here.

Gorgeous location on a beautiful day. Thanks for showing us some of the beauty of the area
I've taken the dog to the lead-free park quite a few times when passing through Mornington but, inexplicably, I never really picked up on the fact that the adjacent bridge-like thing was an actual bridge, leading to...an actual island. A pretty cool little island, it turns out. Ended up getting the torch out to locate the cache when preliminary efforts failed. Last visitor had stowed it away very securely indeed! TFTC Team Leithan!
Was watched closely by geese. Hoping to spy Kermit, no luck. TFTC Team Leithan.

Thanks for the cache. Geokid loved it but did find the geese a little intimidating.
Sorry to Tb owner for keeping the dragon asleep for so long. Now he has awoken!!!
It was a really nice afternoon and as I was in the area decided to stop by here to have a look for this cache. There were plenty of muggles about, many walking their dogs but the area around GZ was quite free of muggles. I had the company of my boy Coops and together we searched for the cache. It was he who found it and once the log was signed it was time to head for home. A great location and thanks Team Leithan for the cache.
We found it with my niece Shaela and my boys!! Be careful of the birds - they're fearsome!!
3/07/2015 Found @ 8:30 pm, Find # 4472.
While out and about on a solo Friday night cache hunt, I headed south to find a few caches that have popped up since I was here last, this is one of them.
I went for a stroll and crossed a bridge where on the other side I spotted some gold coins on the ground, i then found the cache nearby.
The log was signed and I collected the TB.
Thanks to Team Leithan for placing this cache.

Find 02 of 07 for the day and #1848 in total.
Managed to get to this one before the geese arrived which was lucky otherwise Spice wouldn't have gone near it.

Beautiful location. Found it where the frogs may hide. The geese were adorably curious and definitely not people-shy! Left our first travel-bug here!

A great park for a brisk walk and chat to the friendly locals
A quick find although the carpark was rapidly filling even on an overcast windy morning
Many thanx to Team Leitham

Any Found while walking the geo the geo dog needed a tiny hint from sparks-sparks looked up from signing the log to see a couple of ducks watching and had the geese checking on me
Find #1985. Found @ 15:34 with LouiseAnn.
Today's plan was to finish off Mystery May and also to get my 2000th cache. At the start of the day I only needed 1 puzzle to get the required 31 for the Mystery challenge and 21 to go for my 2k.
As with all great plans, something fundamental goes wrong, and you have to adapt. With the rain and delayed start due to car problems, we had only found 4 of the caches on the original plan, but got there in the end..
This was find 6 of 21 for today. On the way to get another puzzle, we were passing close to this one. We stopped to grab the cache and got mobbed by geese on the way there, and on the way back. I made the find here.
Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables.
Thanks for the cache Team Leithan

SirJ-Oz and I had one more day to complete our Mystery May challenge and a limited about of time to get SirJ-Oz's 2000th cache before a big day of caches on the cards for tomorrow. Looking for easy drive by's, to get SirJ-Oz's numbers up, I navigated us to this cache. We picked this cache up at 3:34pm. Although I was apprehensive about the massive flock of geese nearby, they let us past unscathed. We split the searching of GZ between us, and SirJ-Oz made the find.
Thanks for the cache Team Leithan.
Thanks for the cache Team Leithan.
Another nice easy find. I enjoyed the walk to GZ and the hiding place was fun too! Luckily there were plenty of other people in various areas of the park which meant the ducks and geese didn't really come and investigate me so I was able to get the cache without being seen by muggles or ducks! As I imagine happens often in this cache being so close to the water and with all the rain it was rather damp inside the cache and pretty much all the little swaps are waterlogged but luckily the log seems ok since it was sealed in a zip lock bag so I put in a couple of animal trading cards and some sparkly stickers to make sure there were some swaps there, I put them inside the bag too so they should keep dry in there I hope! TFTC!
Find number 1211 on 29 Apr 2015 at 10:04 am.
A fun find with lots of curious assistants helping me, I think they thought I had some bread.
Thank you very much for placing a cache here, I really enjoyed the find.

Even with the rain today this was still a popular park. Thankfully though nobody was in the vicinity and I was able to make a quick find. A nice sized container, no exchange was made today. Thanks to Team Leithan for placing this cache and bringing me to the lovely spot.
One advantage to a cold winters day in the middle of the school holidays is that the Muggles weren't at an otherwise very busy park so we were able to collect this one without any drama. TFTC
I was in the area for an engagement party and couldn't resist finding a nearby cache on the way home.
Thus it was 11:30 pm when I found this cache by torch light, but not before my GPSr led me to a patch of blackberries I could catch on my jeans as I made a quick search of the area around GZ.
I quickly signed the log, put every thing back safely where I found it and head back to the car where my patient wife was waiting for me.
TNLNSL - thanks for the cache, and the enjoyment of caching by torchlight

Out with Toothless (our grandchildren), we all enjoyed this location and the hide. Miss toothless was very excited when she found the cache TFTC
Thanks for a quick find on the way to work. I had some very friendly water hens helping. SL
Hi Guys
Our Geocache has been put back in a different position about 2 metres from the original location. We have decided to keep it there to avoid any more prickle accidents !!!

Nice 'hide' Team L. GPS had me on a Goose chase until I thought about it.
Good sized cache too.
Nocturnal visit made it a bit easier - no fowl tempers to contend with !

Headed out for a day of caching with Nut bear. First for the day and a very quick find in the first place I looked. Lovely little park and well done on a nice first cache.
Thanks Team Leithan for the cache and bringing us here.

Quick find with Scotttiew before we started work.Alot of mess and looks like people leave bread for the Ducks so these birds are in for a very short lifespan and sick life...If cachers look at cache GC5OC9V for whats needed for Ducks good diet you will see what i mean.
A great day caching with BorisB&Natasha. I went one way and Natasha went the other....... Had it in her hand before I knew it. A nice easy one to start the day.
Thanks for the cache Team Leithan.

Hi Team Leithan
This little cache took me so so long.
As you have rated it Difficulty 1, I certainly did not anticipate the manoeuvre I needed to undertake to grab the cache.
I was happy the Honking Geese kept their distance.
Happily SL & motored home.
TFTC suzy ,

Found but not before a number of people before me. Mornington is slightly more active than I thought
Soooooooo many things sacrificed that lead to a DNF. I slipped over on the damp mud. And pinky sadly was sacrificed by the prickles (as seen in pic ). That was just a warning to future cachers. We (Super H and I) tried to be FTF but just didn't make it. Soooooooo close!!!!! We may have another shot in the time to come. This was challenging for us so good cache. Brainiac03

Hoping hoping to FTF with TrudyJane BUT...people possibly with Smart phones beat us... boohoo ...1.45 pm was not quick enough
GrahamT had me anticipating a FTF for me BUT others got there...and I note they are using the US date...so it will look as though we come after Ikkabrady.....must have just missed Ikkabrady
