The cache is a green waterproof match container. The name of the cache will not help you to determine the co-ordinates of the cache.

I came up with the name of this cache while I was looking for a place to hide it. I noticed a kestrel that had found its way through a hole in some netting and was flying around trying to get out again. I told someone who was working nearby and while he was figuring out how to free the bird I continued with the cache placement.

The real co-ordinates for the cache can be found in the text below:

Very interesting hide, thanks for the pointers. I liked your matchbox holder. SL, TFTH.

I have been studying this puzzle for months and the coordinates keep eluding me. I even tried to jetski it when I heard another geocacher mention that they thought the final was in a certain park. I actually was very very close.

So, I did the next best thing, I cried and whined to the cache owner for help, which, as usual, he cheerfully sent me another file to see if I could get it. I actually did, so I headed out today to find the cache. Thanks for the help and the cache, HR. The cache is still in great shape. SL.
