Where are They?
Head North along the beach from the Costa del Sol and you'll see some at beach-level before you hit Hidden Falls. However, there are just as many on the grassy bit above your head, than at sea-level. If other people are questing here, or also working on their Hunting Log, head up the hill then come back South.

I'm sorry for having to use the name so many times in one description. It's really hard to avoid it! Anyway, these kitties are in Outer La Noscea along the North Eastern edge. Some are standing and watching, doing a "Lion King" thing. Without the holding up of the cub that is.

I really don't know why the name of this species is hard to get right. Mildewed Goobue looks right, doesn't it? Well, it's not technically correct, but in the interests of helping you find it, I don't mind misspelling it for yous.Region/Area

The first time I ever came across the term Dryad was in relation to Narnia, with some of those looking like living, moving trees. So, here in FFXIV in the North Shroud this type of autumnal Treant is aptly named.
There are a fair few of the walking trees towards the narrow, natural passage of Proud Creek as well as a couple in it. Just be careful if you run Smells Like Tree Spirit
. While the FATE target isn't too challenging, the Dryads around it get involved thanks to Level Sync.

When Can I Start Hunting Log Rank 5?
Once:
- You have cleared Rank 4, and
- You are at least Level 40 in an Arcanist-based class (including Summoner and/or Scholar).
TL;DR Summoners and Scholars Can Still Clear the Arcanist Hunting Log Rank 4
I had to have this drummed into me by former FC-mates in my early days. Summoners and Scholars both earn Arcanist EXP. That’s why you could unlock both, only play as a Scholar and still level the Summoner. The same is true for your Hunting Logs. Go with which class/job you prefer.
If you do landscape quests and FATEs as a Scholar, though, maybe set your Chocobo to tank mode? Anyway, hopefully this guide has been useful. Rank 5 is in the works, but may take a couple of weeks due to other things.
Have fun in Eorzea, friends.
