Geocache Description:

The European Starling is just one of many bird species that you might see in the Tri-Cities area.

First brought to North America by Shakespeare enthusiasts in the nineteenth century, European Starlings are now among the continent’s most numerous songbirds. They are stocky black birds with short tails, triangular wings, and long, pointed bills. Though they’re sometimes resented for their abundance and aggressiveness, they’re still dazzling birds when you get a good look. Covered in white spots during winter, they turn dark and glossy in summer.

No need to remove container from hide spot (simply unscrew cap to access log -- please do not overtighten cap). Find the cache, earn a smiley, and have fun!
