Description

 

Hi! I'm Oggie the Boggle-eyed Froggie.  Some people think I am a real cutie - despite my eyes being far too big for my head.

I am known to have a competitive and adventerous spirit and am very excited to be competing in the Leap Frog cache race (1st December 2011 to 31st January 2012).

I'd love to travel far and wide and do so very quickly! I'd very much love to outrace other local frogs.

I like small swaps and have a log book for you to sign.  You are welcome to take a photo of me and put it up on the website so that others may see what I have been up to.

This geocache appears to be MIA so to stop it clogging the search lists we'll archive it. This is done to keep the Geocaching Australia clean and up to date.
If the owner can confirm it is in place the listing can be resurrected by placing an "unarchived" log against it.

Oops. It looks like this cache has had incorrect coordinates entered during an Admin Review.
Perhaps a geocacher might find it here... S35° 13.368' E149° 8.150'
We'll keep an eye on it to see if it gets found otherwise we'll archive it in a few months.

From reading the logs I think Oggie is here S35° 13.368' E149° 8.150' The wrong coords are in the geocaching Australia log. He is not at Mt Fairy as we checked every guard rail.

No luck, MIA.

As part of Geocaching Australia's effort to keep the database uncluttered we periodically check moveable caches that have not been moved for at least 90 days. Although some caches may remain in one spot for an extended period it would be great to see them moving around the countryside.

If you're in the area how about picking up this moveable cache and helping it on it's journey.

I have just discovered I made an error logging and moving this movable. I didn't look at the number and make sure I had the correct movable and cache page I just clicked on it and logged. I didn't twig with the incorrect name Stupidly assuming this is what the CO wanted. Don't know where my head was. I would delete the logs but I have entered this into the States game. Sorry!!
Also, I didn't see this movable at GZ, it could still be nearby and I was unaware as I thought only one movable was here. LONG STORY.

Found on my doorstep tonight when I arrived home. Thanks for the chance to find.

We were biting at the bit for an open-air adventure, sick of the four walls, so we went for a run to Goulburn and out to Lake Bathurst and Tarago for some caches. While passing I found this movable. Thanks for the moveable.

In Shepparton picking up daughter and I had a couple of moveables to drop off. The frog jumped out of the car while I was looking for another GA cache in the area. Was Oggie the Boggled eyed Frog a tree frog??
 
21-Dec-17
only time to find one moveable in this sea of moveables before work. I'm sure the man walking his dog wondered why a lady dressed up in a bright red Christmas dress was climbing through a fence - it was the quickest way and I only had time for a park and run. Took the frog and left some teeth. TFTc

Now in Alexandra and time to find a new home. Would only like to be here for a very short time before being found and moved on.
I hope some one will take me on the weekend of the mega here in town and take me on a journey.
 
09-Nov-17
No longer at the posted Co Ordinates. Will take this one south with us and place it in a good spot.

Day 4 of our journey to Alexandra. Left Nanango Qld on Monday and stayed overnight in Moree. Left Moree early on Tuesday arrived in Dubbo Wednesday and now it is Thursday and we are staying in Dubbo till Friday. Next on the list and parked on the side road and walked to this one after finding another one close by. This one needed a new log book so I took care of that little task. TFTC Whit's Wanderers.

Three frogs have been living in my front yard for a while. I thought they would go for a hop over to the NT some time ago, but no. So today I decided to give them a new and much more frog friendly home in the bush. All three frogs live close to each other but have their own homes.

To get to the frogs safely you should probably put the coordinates in your driving map device or app and let it direct you so you don't miss the turn or cause traffic trouble. Please pass and turn around somewhere safely if you need to.

I love this frog! Oggie is so cute! Ribbit
Cool cache. Ordinary location so easy to pick up if on way through to Alice.
Oggie is hanging out with a few friends as they sit in hope of a trip to the centre of Australia or just somewhere else.
 
Had to visit the big smoke this week. Paused at this interesting cemetery to check it out and find a few Aussie caches. picked up this one and a few buddies for a trip out west. Smile

Happy travels young frog...

Out for a lunchtime walk dropping a few caches I've had for a little while. After being over 18 months at it's last stop I'd be surprised if it lasts more than a week or two here with the new dragonzone game going. Happy trails Oggie.
Thanks whit's wanderers.
 
23-Apr-14
I was grabbing a new GC cache about 20m away so decided to grab Oggie and actually move him on. I know it's a nice place down here but 18 months is far too long for a movable cache to be on one spot.
Thanks Whit's Wanderers.

Yesterday mainly involved finding fun hides to entertain the little one... today was all about about solo effort, so I thought I'd do a few multis, and a puzzle that had recently been refreshed.

While wandering down the trail from Chelsworth Park, past the golf course to a multi further down the muddy pathway, I ducked in to find Oggie. He looked so comfortable there, that I decided to leave him to enjoy his hiding spot for a while longer.

Spotted this one at 18:35 while on the way home from work this evening. It was fairly gloomy by the time I arrived at GZ but the lights of the bike and the O3 soon had me with the stash in hand Smile. Oggie was enjoying the comings and goings on the nearby golf course so I left him in place.

Dropped off Oggie yesterday while on a walk not too far from the Yarra. The kids were playing in the trees and I spotted this perfect hiding place not too far from the parking area.
Good luck little frog and happy travels.

Found this afternoon while on the way home from the shops. I didn't even know he was here til I picked up the nearby GC cache then found this very cute little fellow at the base of a tree.
Thanks Whit's Wanderers for the frog. I'll try to move him on soon.

Nice find today among all the Frogs, Gnomes and others over 70 participants as well as the odd human, some of them very odd indeed!
Many Frogs and Gnomes went to Canberra and who knows where from there, and many stayed to be relocated around the Sydney area very soon.
 
12-Feb-12
Found at an impromptu Frog and Gnome party in the Blue Mountains.

A great number of frogs, gnomes and other moveables gathered to swap tales of their life on the road.

Thanks for the Frog Whit's Wanderers
 
12-Feb-12
What we ended up with was afternoon tea, bags and bags of frogs, and pleasant chats with some very nice cachers - as well as pjmpjm and RogerW3!

Please forgive me if I got it wrong, but I seem to remember pjmpjm, RogerW3, Toriaz and Taiko's family, all at the party. As well as a few young ladies and gentlemen running around and being generally helpful.

We now have many, many frogs to rehome, so the sooner we start the better!
