Geocache Description:

Another cache with a view.  This time on the western side of town. The cache is not hidden at the coordinates given; the real coordinates must be solved from the clues provided below.

This is in a newer part of town, which is undergoing quite a lot of development. For this reason I cannot guarantee how long this cache will be available. Nevertheless, this spot has a lovely view, and still there is a lot of natural beauty to enjoy nearby. Therefore it deserves a cache.

When I first came across this cache, I was struck by the number of birds in the area. This partly explains the name of the cache.

The cache is not hidden at the given location. Instead one must use the following to solve the equation for the real coordinates:

A: S 25 28.413 E 030 58.377
B: S 25 28.675 E 031 00.676
C: S 25 28.660 E 030 58.833
D: S 25 29.102 E 030 57.109
E: S 25 28.587 E 030 58.686 (Flip vertically)

S 25 (B+B)(E).CC(D+B) E 030 (D-C)(A-B).EB(2C)
