Geocache Description:

Cache is located in Magnolia Cemetery which is on Montrose just south of Allen Parkway. Gates are open from 8:00am to 6:00pm. A good number of Muggles walk the area during the lunch hour. You are looking for a small container that contains a log. Please remember to bring your own pen.

Perigrine Falcon is another cache in my series featuring birds that are less common but often seen on the upper Texas coast.

Powerful and fast-flying, the Peregrine Falcon hunts medium-sized birds, dropping down on them from high above in a spectacular stoop. Virtually exterminated from eastern North America by pesticide poisoning in the middle 20th century, restoration efforts have made it a regular, if still uncommon sight in many large cities including Houston. Most common in the winter months the black mustache mark on face and long pointed wings make it easy to distinguish a Peregrine from the Red Tailed Hawk which is also seen in this area.
