A trip to Ballarat with a few friends. Five frogs hidden here in the one spot!
A quick find on the last day of the race! Will move it on soon.

It's too hot to make more than one stop so 5 for 1 at this location overlooking the creek. (6 if you haven't found GC2EAA8 - Fanny's Forest) Good luck little frogs. Hopefully there's at least 1 more move for you before the race ends.
Grabbed with the geokids on probably our last frog hunt before the end of the race. Found 5 frogs today for an east-west exchange tomorrow. A bit hot this afternoon so no muggles around. Geokids were excited to see a bunch of rabbits running around.
Apologies for the delayed release of Mingo, but I've been flat at at work this week, and on Australia Day couldn't find a hiding place that I thought suitable for him where he might stand a chance of a quick find.
After attempting these Leapfrogs Sunday morning, only to find the place intensely mugglely with little cricketers, I left it to tackle again during the week. After having to go far afield to grab my daily cache, I thought to give it another try tonight. GZ muggle free (apart from some sitting on chairs under distant trees) so I thought I'd try my luck and after a quick look around the bridge I spotted the frogs (I had missed them last time or I might've tried my luck then) and did a quick grab and escaped Will move them to a new hide soon.
After finding a nearby cache, I moved this nice Frog to a swampy location. He looked pretty happy with a friend
Nice frog Found very close to my house (thanks gmj3191). Will move on soon, maybe even to Melbourne Park near the Aus open Then some international visitor might find him and take him far far away

Moved to a nearby location where I know he will be collected by someone who will be kind to him.
Found Mingojerry sheltering under a bush beside a pond, hiding from the frog loving ducks.
I'll help him on his way as soon as I can.

Found this one hanging around on a table at the Marble Bar Hotel - I think they were confused and thought it was a lily pad
Found this guy hanging out with a bunch of other frogs at a pub dinner.. they were all pretty well behaved.. and they did have an allocated driver, and everyone seemed to leave happy! !
Missed out on this one - it had either moved or was never actually here in the first place. After such a long frog drought too.
Found when Blossom* did a frog exchange with us at Lane Cove.
Will put him out very soon.

Up in Sydney with some Frogs who were keen to see the Oldest Australian cache site (and decided to stay) when we noticed a bunch of frogs on the way out of Lane Cove. they were tired and decided to do the BMPT with us before hitching a ride south to visit the ACT.

Mingo was keen to visit the oldest cache in Australia so I dropped him off here with a heap of froggie mates and I saw them heading off into the park
I met this guy at the frog convention at Bicentennial Park and he asked to come home with me to continue partying
Part of the Froggy Honour Guard that can to see me off at my ZEAMMAFF Event!
And now a Frog from Out Sponser! The Geo-What Prizes went down a treat thanks Dvixen! Mingo was happy amongst over 50 fellow froggy friends!
I was so happy to see more than 50 Frogs & Gnomes show up for the farewell! I logged as many as I could as I wont see them again before the end of the race. Thanks to everyone who came, human, amphibian and Gnome
A great time was had by all and it took over an hour to sort and sign all the caches who Blossom* made sure found a good safe home
Cheers, and see you in 6 months!

This was one of many frogs (as well as a few gnomes) that came along to boot Zalgariath back to Europe at ZEAMMAFF. Things were really hopping as more and more frogs arrived during the afternoon, by the time the event had finished, over 55 movables had hopped onto the table. Of course, with that many frogs hopping around in one place, something was bound to happen, and one poor gnome was bumped to the ground, requiring a trip to gnome hospital and a serious stay there, but the less said about that the better.
'Mingojerry' has moved to a new address, please forward all his mail but hurry he may not be there for long.
'Mingojerry Ramplefrog' had thoughts of escaping me, but I caught up with him and he is now captured. But don't despair he will be on his way soon.

Another froggy gone! Still, he might have enjoyed the car ride as it was raining a bit heavily today. Hang on, he's a frog He LIKES rain!
'Mingo' has gone back to Town and decided this was the spot for him to look for food, don't know why he doesn't like chocolate!
Now that is what I call service! You just have to love the new FHDS (Frog Home Delivery Service) I just got home from Sydney when the delivery was made, top stuff.
'Mingo' is an old friend so he was happy to be here.

'Mingojerry Ramplefrog' following his new mate to this popular hiding spot. Who will be there to pick him and his friend up. Where will they end up?
Found Mingo in the company of rogerw3, who will now move him along.

In between dodging the rain, I got close enough to 'Mingojerry Ramplefrog' to catch him before he could run away. Not that he was unhappy about being caught once I mentioned that plenty of big juicy flies were available for the taking!
He will be back on the road very soon.

Mingo fled as soon as the weather cleared up. He's now a tree frog.
Now this was fun, hunting down so many frogs after work. This is not always possible, so thank you for leaving frogs in other locations besides the usual suburbs.
Mingojerry was the last one found.

Last frog to move into Central Gardens this visit. He found a quiet corner to wait.
Took a little bit of hunting before I spotted him there, even though I knew the spot having placed a different frog there yesterday. Hopping on tomorrow.
Mingo took the very first opportunity to get away from Fanty and headed down to the river for a bit of a swim
I found Mingo at the froggie party that seems to have developed at home He was a bit frustrated with Fanty still being around I think
Took Mingo further north for a bit of a wander
Logged down at the NSW Christmas event.
Found on the way to work with Black Bunny. There are certainly a lot of "little detours" that the Bunny is racking up now the Frogs are about. This looks like a nice little area to walk the dog so we will be back.
Thanks for the Frog Dvixen & Tiger Monkey
