"Bird" is the "Word" Challenge Mystery Cache
retiredprof: In light of geocaching's recent changes to the publishing rules, I am archiving all 150 of my challenge caches. I am a retired psychology professor, not a computer programmer. I am simply unable to comply with the new geochecker rules. I am sad that I have to do this. For those who have already begun any of my challenge caches, please note that you can still log archived caches. If you have any problems with this decision, please contact the geocaching authorities so that your suggestions may be considered.

The cache is located along the western Feather River levee at the posted coordinates, two or three miles south of Yuba City. In order to log this cache, you must first find 25 "bird" caches, as explained below.
**********LOGGING REQUIREMENTS**********
Your job is to find 25 caches with the word "bird" in the title. The plural of the word is acceptable, as are compound words such as hummingbird, birdhouse, and birdman. There is no time limit involved here, you may already have found them. When logging this cache, list your requisite caches as shown below. And, feel free to name your favorite bird, or mention a memorable bird viewing. For example, not long ago I saw an osprey dive down to the surface of a pond and fly away with a fish wiggling in its claws. Awesome!
