On a roll with the Wireless Hill caches today and our walk came here to Dead End. Fully primed for the unexpected 'duck' hide we honed in to this one quickly. Surprising that we did as we haven't seen a cache hidden like that before. TFTC duck_43.
Returned after 3 years to find the cache on the 2nd attempt. A great feeling to turn a blue frown into a yellow smile.
Coordinates was a bit of but still ended up a quick wind with a bit of pushing things around the area.
I was in Perth for a few days and getting caches in my spare time. This cache was targeted and found in good condition. Thank you for placing and maintaining this cache.
This was 5m away from GZ on my GPS. AL spotted it after searching everywhere else. Clever hide TFTC
The neighbours were cleaning their garage nearby so I had to practice stealth here. I inspected a few hosts before going closer to GZ. Avoided getting hurt and finally found the genius camo. TFTC
Another bloody good hide from the master Mr Duck. Cache was found and logged.
Cheers FP here

Thank you! Morning run and errands in the area. Good opportunity to stop for a cache or three. Happy to make the find here.
Log is full and unfortunately I didn't have any replacements on me today.

Had to come back for round two. Brought the mandem along too and found it quickly
Doing a bunch of caches around south west Western Australia. TFTC.
A great hide. No trouble finding it. Needs a new log.

Thanks for taking us on this lovely walk around exploring all different wildflowers. Second try lucky to find this one. I couldn’t see it a few years today I could see something that didn’t look right. great camo
Cache in good condition.
This is my 3009 find.
Thank you duck 43 for placing and maintaining this cache.
Geology rocks but Geography is where it’s at!
(I’m not a geologist I just like puns)
Pulled into the end of the street and walked over to GZ.
Had a look around for the cache and any eyes that might be observing and spotted neither.
Continued the cache hunt and thought I had it picked when I spotted some likely supports, turned out I was incorrect but in checking it out spotted the actual cache.

With the kids in a holiday program at Murdoch the plan for the day was to clear up some of the PT caches nearby and then head to Henderson to tackle the series in the bush land there.
The first part of the plan went well and was just setting off for the last couple of PT caches when the ping of a new cache had me scrapping the plans and heading to the western suburbs.
After finishing up at the new cache I stayed in the area for a while before heading to Booragoon to grab a few more caches and the new adventure lab before heading back to Murdoch and picking up the kids.
After a wide ranging day I came home with 17 finds, 5 adventure labs and 2 DNF’s.

Another great camo. Log about full but didn’t have a replacement unfortunately. TFTC
All good here on a lovely morning for a stroll in this park with the great views..pretty quiet with only the occasional dog walker for me..cache and log in excellent condition tftc
Mrs. D wanted to look for some duck caches on her birthday. Of course our resident muggle just so happens to be excellent at spotting ducks. He noticed a difference at gz and we soon the cache in hand. Tftc!
Another Duck hunt for my birthday
While we were looking Driving Mrs D says I think it’s here. A fav point for the clever camo and hubby finding it again
We were FaceTiming the kids in California and they like your work…apparently a lot mor interesting than all the lightpole caches over there

Excellent camo. Similar to another Duck 43 I’ve done on the passed so found fairly quickly.
Found it. TFTC duck43. Out n about by myself in this area with an hour to spare so what better to do but a mini duckrun. I surprised myself here, I got it reasonably quick. Usually I spend far too long on a duck cache. This one gave me the potential to make a career out of just one find, Dam that was smart. Replaced as found. Another fav
This one took a little while to track down due to people passing by and being a tricky hide.
Managed to track down eventually.
Tftc!

Introducing my Brother in Law John, into this secret world of Geocaching. What better way than via a few Sir Duck caches. Thanks for the time and effort that you have put into creating so great a challenge and enjoyment for your geocaching followers.
Have another favorite.

Some loitering around required here as a family made their way into the park at a painstakingly slow pace, thanks to the grand kiddies wanting to look and poke at every single thing as they went along. Not even geowife could pretend to tie her shoe laces for that long - after a while, it just looked like she was injured, doubled over in pain, while I stood there having a casual chat with her.
So despite my attention to detail picking out the geocache very early on, we waited for our moment and I pounced.

Very nice. But being a sparky makes me not like people poking around these things tftc
Finally I can turn this into a smiley. A bit of brute force and nerves of steel lol. TFTC
Think I spotted the camo but there were two young muggles playing nearby so I didn't hang around.
Surprisingly, this was a very quick find!
It will go some way towards making up for the string of previous DNFs.
Extracting it was relatively straight forward, but returning it took some manual labour (hopefully I did it correctly).

My trade skills came in handy for this one, "one to many" clever hide TFTC.
Great hide! We had to look for a bit. Very deceptive! Signed the log and replaced it.
Extremely good camo with this one. I think we both had our hands on this a couple of times before we realized it was the cache. Little bit difficult to reveal the cache but with a gentle hand we managed the job. A definite favourite here. Thanks duck 43
Wow how good was this once again. So so clever. Loving a good walk around here today. Great views over the Swan and towards the city
Found this one quite quickly. Tricky to obtain and more so to replace, but all good. Signed and replaced as found. Clever disguise. I was stealthy to avoid detection from the 'neighbours' and a couple of walkers.. Suddenly felt the need to take some photos of the beautiful surroundings......

I think all 3 of us touched the cache before realising what it was. Great hide, duck 43. TFTC
Was out with atCapacity on this super hot day.
Had my hand on the cache initially but passed it off as something else. Eventually we came back to it after trying everything else.

I came here today to enjoy a lovely hour of solitude on a hot & busy Christmas Day. Well, my day was busy, Wireless Hill Park however was virtually deserted, just a handful of picnickers on the grass. Naturally everything was closed but I was just here for a short walk - although I did take advantage of the quiet to pick up a trio of caches too 
It's actually my first time here and what a lovely area - will definitely be back to explore some more.
This was one that I stopped to grab on the drive in. Thankfully it was all very quiet around here so was able to park up and walk over to the host without any problems. Gave it a quick once over and spotted a couple of things of interest. The first one was real... but the second moved, and I was soon signing the log Another great camo construction! No problems here today though, TFTC
