New to geocaching? Not every geocache is a contain New to geocaching?
Not every geocache is a container hidden under a log. Some geocaches include puzzles that must be solved before you can access the logbook.
This creative birdhouse cache uses a flashlight to reveal a hidden combination, unlocking a secret compartment and the geocache inside. 🔦🧩
Would you stop to solve this one?

Video by teamdsjp. 

Video: A geocacher approaches a wooden birdhouse attached to a tree. They use a cellphone flashlight to shine a light in one of four holes on the side of the birdhouse. The camera zooms in on the birdhouse’s opening, revealing an illuminated number “5.” The illuminated numbers change as the geocacher moves their flashlight across the holes. The camera then pans to the other side of the birdhouse, the geocacher unlocks a padlock using the illuminated numbers, and a compartment door opens to reveal the geocache.

Video by creativecache.

Video: A geocacher attaches a battery to a connector on one side of a birdhouse. The camera quickly moves to the other side of the box, where the numbers 1 through 10 are written at the bottom. Above each number is a column of small holes—several are lit up, indicating a code to unlock the box. The camera moves to the front of the box and removes a number padlock. They open a small door and pull out a plastic geocache container.
