Geocache Description:

Wolseley Wander is a short series of two caches around the Wolseley Centre Nature Reserve. Although child friendly please be careful with geokids as some of the caches are very close to water.

Barn Owl cache is a camouflaged box, originally containing a logbook, pencil, a few swaps and a TB. Take care, this cache is very close to water. Please cover the cache again as this area is used by den building mini-muggles.

The Wolseley Centre is the headquarters of Staffordshire Wildlife Trust. It is surrounded by 26 acres of former landscape gardens and was once the ancestral home of the Wolseley family. Now managed as a nature reserve, it boasts a range of habitats and wildlife trails. Parking is available next to the Centre until the gates are locked at 5.15pm. The pedestrian gate is always open.

Barn owls have a heart shaped face, buff back and wings and white underparts. They hunt by flying slilently low over the ground and eat small animals, particularly rodents. There is a barn owl nesting box at Wolseley.

I would like to thanks Alison Rhodes and everyone at Staffordshire Wildlife Trust for their permission to place this cache.
