A Frog Riddle
Q. Why are frogs always happy?
A. Because they eat whatever bugs them!
This cache is an entrant in the Leap Frog Project, a Geocaching Australia game that runs from 1 December 2011 until 31 January 2012.
Your challenge is to locate this cache, collect it, make your log and rehide it somewhere else, as far away as possible, and as quickly as possible. When you find it and move it along, please rehide it safely, but provide a detailed hint in your "moved" log so that he can easily found next time.
Please feel free to log this cache as often as you wish, as long as you are having fun finding and rehiding it. Of course, you should wait until at least two other persons have hidden it before you can log it as a find again.
There are some simple guidelines:
There are some simple guidelines:
- When you grab the cache please rehide it within 2 days to keep the cache moving.
- Please rehide the cache as far away from where you found it as possible. The further the better!
- Log your find at Geocaching Australia as soon as you can so others are not trying to find the cache you just moved.
- When logging your find at geocaching.com.au, please insert the co-ordinates in the coords box.
This allows the software to automatically update the new location.
Enter your co-ordinates in the format Sdd mm.mmm Eddd mm.mmm
You don't have to include the degrees or minutes symbols when entering updated co-ordinates but you should leave a space between the degrees and minutes. - Wherever possible, try and keep to the difficulty / terrain rating as originally listed.
Of course the best fun about one of these caches is that you don't have to worry about being spotted retrieving the cache. Feel free to be as obvious as you need to be in order to claim it.
Enjoy

We wandered past kenny this afternoon to see how he was - nothing but a shredded bag and a very wet log bog. Seems the mower man got him 
after an unsuccessful search for a key nearby, i hopped over to be near a busy road. But please don't stop here to pick me up, try one of the quieter side streets.
Not here for long. It was raining a perfect for a frog to move on.

Dropped Kenny off in a nice bit of bushland close to a running stream. I'm sure he will like it here.
I love being able to grab Movables when there are muggles around. One was walking down the opposite footpath while I had my head into the bushes. Grabbed the Frog and it squeeked at me. I don't think the muggle heard it but who cares. Off to meet a few of the others in the area.
We were exploring a street new to us on the Mt Gravatt side of Griffith Uni. Innovation Park I think it was called. In any case as we drove slowly Kenny leaped out. Last we saw he was hunkering down in a nifty hiding spot. Gee I hope those research departments based there don't use frogs in their research. Someone retrieve him quick!
Kenny called us as we were walking through the park. I am sure he knew we were frog hunters. The frogs around Lismore and South East Queensland sure know us.
Kenny asked us if we could get him out of where he was hiding, while it was a nice place to start with and he enjoyed meeting the lizard, someone had dumped a bag of used first aid supplies- ick!
Anyway, he was overjoyed to meet us and asked if he could come to Queensland with us. Of course you can was our reply.
Next stop paradise!

'Ladava' liked this spot even if he had to share it with a local lizard, he thought there was enough food for both, so he stayed here.
'Ladava Leaping frog #2' was hiding as well as he could, but he became capture number 2 for the day.
He begged to be left in this Park were Frog food is abundant.

Kenny has raced off to Parramatta Park. He found a nice secluded spot in the middle of a patch of bush to hide.
Kenny was getting hungry and i'd heard about a great new walkway through the mangroves so I took him down to check it out. What a froggie heaven!!! He's right beside a little creek in the middle of the mangroves, a top froggie spot!! 
As i headed off, I could just see his little red tongue darting in and out catching flies and mozzies and anything else that flew by 
As i headed off, I could just see his little red tongue darting in and out catching flies and mozzies and anything else that flew by Kenny wanted to find more caches so I took him along on the cache run for a while
Kenny came for a drive along the Hawkesbury River today and stopped off here to find a nice cache
Kenny was really getting stuck in to all the mozzies around this afternoon, I think he's getting fat! I'll ake him to my place and see if he can diminish my mozzie population too

Visiting Australia's oldest cache site
Another stifling hot day, and we caching idiots are out in the heat again. I have no idea why we do it, but we just keep on hunting for one more...and one more... and so on.
Grabbing frogs from Victoria. Carrying frogs to Canberra - a bit like carrying coals to Newcastle, but never mind. I'm sure they'll be popular in Canberra.

Found with Just a cacher on a early morning run through Melbourne on the way back to Canberra. We will give him a lift north.
Thanks for the Frog

Moved the frog. Don't worry Ladava! Your frog is not lost!

Our cousins visiting from Sydney were having dinner in Carlton (Lygon St)when they came across it! They weren't sure what it was, but we followed the instructions, found this website and we've relocated it.

We found the frog at the pond then walked around fitzroy and carlton squeaking the frog as we went. We stopped in Lygon St for some pasta. Some time during the meal the leaping frog jumped out of my pocket onto the ground. We didn't notice it was missing until we got about 2 blocks away. We went back but the frog was gone. Sorry Ladava - We lost your frog!

Got this as a sort of present from my cousins, and had no idea what it was. I looked inside, and there was a sheet telling me to come here! It's an innovtive idea, and a great game, can't wait to find more frogs! Would've been good if my cousins kept it because they live in Sydney and this frog could've been hidden there.
Will put up a new 'moved log' soon!

After work I found myself with a few hours spare before I was due home so I made most of the time and went out looking for leapfrog caches and some GC traditional caches that seem to have popped up in the last couple of days. While I discovered this cache I am not in a position to move it on, so I’ll leave it in place and re-log the same co-ords so that geocachers see that it’s still available and in place. Thanks for the frog!

A lovely spot for an exhibitionist frog. Coords were very flaky but he's in the fig tree under RMIT
I nearly got washed away by the storm. Didn't get out of the car because of all the lightning. The logs suggest the frog has moved on.

Found along with 2 buddies - will move him on in the next couple of days. Not sure he is going to win any beauty contests.
I went out Frog Hunting and I found this cache with caughtatwork on a fun night of finding frogs.
A last minute find this evening. Hope to have him back out and about soon or maybe he'll take a trip to Bendigo.

Kenny is out in greener pastures.
Come and save him before he nods off!!

I think Kenny should have been called VIC.
Certainly the sweetest smelling frog here in the west!!
No tree climbing for this little fella anymore!!

Kenny leaped a couple of suburbs and climbed a tree 
My first frog capture, a quick find on the way to work, bit of a noisy critter this one. I'll drop him off later today.
