Bird Sanctuary Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

alleslapp: Well...I checked on this today and I am sad to say...it is gone....the whole thing...the host and all. No idea why someone decided to remove it as the area is NOT used by anything other than birds and critters. This cache was the only reason for humans to be in that spot. I can only hope it was way more work to remove than put in!! SEE YA OLD FRIEND!

Geocache Description:


When Lesori and I went to place this cache, I wasn't sure yet on the name for the cache. That was taken care of when we got to the area. There were birds of all sorts. We saw several species of birds and heard even more back in the fenced in woods. We spotted the following:

Cardinal

Robin

Purple Martin

Red-winged Blackbird

Double-crested Cormorant

Blue Jay

Canadian Goose (and several goslings).

We didn't see it, but we sure heard it....A Wild Hen Turkey.

She was quite clear to hear among her other feathered friends. No promises you will have the same experience, but you never know.....

The cache is not inside the fenced in area, so don't worry about that. The container was an abandoned item and I decided to CITO the area and trust me....it was in much worse shape when I found it than it is now. It is a bit of a walk from the suggested parking, but there is only a little rolling of the terrain so it won't be a hard hike.

UPDATE: Nov 2009 It is quite obvious we have a GEO THIEF in the area. In the past month, 3 Geocoins and 1 TB have been taken by someone who has not logged their visit nor have they logged taking the travelers. There are a couple other caches nearby that also have bugs listed and not in the cache. As much as I hate this, FOR THE SAFETY OF THE ITEMS... PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE TRACKABLES IN THIS CACHE AT THIS TIME. For the "person" stealing these....Your penitence will come.

Enjoy the area as we did!
