Description
Logs
This one might need archiving so that it doesn't keep appearing on our maps. I suspect it is almost certainly gone...
DNF. Climbing all over the mossy rocks, looking for the rock crevice with stick and bark (there are lots of those) and ended up falling over, and aggravating my already very sore rib injury sustained 7 days ago whilst caching in Victoria.
Maybe Gorbak could re-find and relocate??

Went looking for this guy but too many rock cavities, too much greenery and too many sticks and bark. could the last hider please check to see if this little guy is still here or if he has decided to venture out on his own
Mr red tag and I conducted a thorough search both above and below the road but could not find this frog. Perhaps the hider could check on it to see if it is still there?
This was only about 15m from "Hop To It" but I couldn't find either of them. Rocky hillsides are often devils for finding caches (or frogs).
I thought this would be a nice spot for this frog.
Found this one along with a couple of others on a quick detour as I was passing by...
Nice stroll on the mountain today and a quick find
Rated: for Overall Experience
Ulverstone enjoyed his trip to the summit with the skating crew, but he was worried he was going to fall of the platform whilst having his photo taken. He was much happier once he go to the ice rink and could find a home there.
The crew going up the mountain for a skating party stopped to invite this frog along. He accepted, although he looked a little worried - or is that just his usual expression???
Near the metal friend that groans and sputters.
Hi ROBTAS
Have had a mixed day looking for frogs on my way back to Huonville. Found five to date, this made a sixth.
"Ilikelenses" hid them well and it took a little search to find him. In fact, I had total cache blindness for a long time. When I finally put my eyes on him, couldn't figure out why it had taken so long.
Found at 1313hrs. He had a few mates with him; together they make a good threesome.
Cheers and TFTC

A lovely stroll around a muggle filled park! I think we got some strange looks but nobody questioned us!

Since we were in Launceston we decided to go for a wander and deposit some frogs throughout the place.
Found this frog far from where it was placed. It (apparently) hopped into a bag and was put into the NTrailTB and transported to Launceston where it has been partying and seeing in the New Year in comfort at a swank motel room. These partying frogs were given a choice of wine or beer or mixed spirits.....
Once they recover, we will put them back out.

This wee frog wanted to go play in the creek. The rushes looked cool and inviting. However as this creek is prone to rise rapidly during bouts of vigorous precipitation wee froggy is shading under a nearby tree instead.
collected from mail box, and what an easy find that is
Anyway here is my log signature
Da -Glumpf went the little Green frog one day

Ran into Old Saint out doing the 2011 Christmas cache and did a frog swap as well. Handed this fellow To Old Saint for his next adventure.
Found this fellow on a very quiet Christmas morning. Not many people moving about yet, but I'm sure that will be changing within a few hours.
This frog is now well south of his previous location and awaiting his next adventure.
Frognapped this little chappy on our way south for a weekend of wet camping. Didn't get a chance to log until we arrived, so apologies to whitewebbs who looked for a frog that wasn't there.

No luck - if still there perhaps a hint as GZ in grass area not near bushes where we looked and did not find

Back out and waiting for the next hop. This is the frog with hands on mouth. We'll sort them out yet.
These spiky frogs definitely all do have different faces. I've checked three so far. I had a fourth but I left it in Devonport. Someone needs to find it and hop it along a couple of times so I can check that one as well.

Hiding out beside a path in the Gorge
He hopped right in that cutting grass was tickling his ... Nose

All good, not stolen, you got the right one, I spotted you guys out the window and was about to come out but you were gone!
Moved this little frog on quickly, just in case we have just stolen him!
He's in the centre of some cutting grass.

Snaffled this one this morning. Had to wonder what would happen if we had the wrong location and we were stealing someone's garden frog.
Relocated to our Froggy Retreat. Froggy is about 5 meters on to our property and you are welcome to come in to the retreat.
This little guy wasn't sure he wanted to go across the bridge again (scared of heights) so decided to hang out on this side for a while.
He's a little guy, but should be easy to spot - if you need help, ask for a sign.

I hope you don't mind Robtas - but I tagged a few of your frogs with the "leapfrog" tag - that's makes them show up on the Leapfrog only map views. - Rob (the other one)
The Dawn Bus was a little late - but I collected the little guy this evening. Had to dodge rampaging Elves and guys in Santa costumes though - apparently it's the Devonport Christmas Parade tonight...

Leap Frog is ready for the Dawn Service, not the one on Anzac Day, but the pickup service tomorrow morning. Can you help?
We need another wicket says the fanatic so off we go and there watching traffic go round the clock in yet another small frog. Another first to find, another wicket fallen and Progressive Frog Bowling figures 6-1-15-3. Thanks for the cache Robtas.
