This cache is part of the GOLD COAST POWER TRAIL.
A joint initiative by a group of local Gold Coast cachers.
Each cache is themed on a critter indigenous to the Gold Coast.
Most of the containers are small golden cache tubes with a logbook only and should be easy to find.
However, each participating cacher has one hide which may be more difficult!
This cache is named after a native Gold Coast bird called the "Dollarbird".
The Dollarbird (Eurystomus Orientalis) has a love of insects, especially beetles and often catches prey whilst flying. The young birds have a darker beak which becomes more orange as it matures.
It is most commonly seen as a single bird with a distinctive upright silhouette on a bare branch high in a tree, from which it hunts for insects, returning to the same perch after a few seconds.
This area often becomes infested with grasshoppers, a favourite food of the dollarbird. So keep your eyes peeled for this handsome bird as you pass through.
