Geocache Description:

The Riparian Preserve in Gilbert provides a great opportunity for bird watching. Close to 200 bird species have been sighted.  As I set the location for the cache I stood and watched patiently for the first bird to appear. First Bird; Peach-faced Lovebird. Here at Lovebird TB Spa & Resort trackables are warmly welcomed on their trip throughout the Geocache World.

Sometimes you’ll see a pair of them and at other times a big group of them, I call them a “mob”.  They are fun to watch and sing a lot. Local wild populations exist in portions of Arizona. These birds are descendents from released or escaped birds. The information from Parrots of the World indicates that the dry wash desert habitat of Arizona is similar to that of South-western Africa their original home.
