Help my friend complete his studies! Just solve the puzzle then find the location and the 'cache'. You'll know it when you see it - don't remove it. There's no log to sign. Due to the nature of this puzzle, please DO NOT post photos, describe the cache or describe the location. If you think you've found what Bernardo is looking for, post your find and immediately email me a detailed full-color description of what you found and where you found it to claim the cache.

The puzzle:

Every day, Bernardo goes to Oxford to study ornithology. The ornithoid he must find and study to complete his degree is the rare and elusive Archilochus colubris fauxplasticus. (The ornithoid is multi-colored, and does not perch on roof tops or other private property.)
