Under a few pinecones when placed. Watch for downhill mountainbikes! Theres a fairly well defined track, but it is up a hill and not marked so make sure you are in tramping/ navigation mode! Cache is off a MTB trail- walking is fine here too just look out. Under cones and sticks about 10-20 m off the trail.
The blue duck (Hymenolaimus malacorhynchos) is a member of the duck, goose and swan family Anatidae endemic to New Zealand. It is the only member of the genus Hymenolaimus,[2] placed in the shelduck subfamily Tadorninae[citation needed] after previously being considered part of the paraphyletic "perching duck" assemblage. The Māori name, sometimes used in English, is whio (pronounced "fee-oh"), which is an onomatopoetic rendition of the males' call.
The blue duck is depicted on the reverse side of the New Zealand $10 banknote.
