Knagur Green: Greetings

We have received a request to archive your cache page as the physical cache appears to be in need of maintenance and there has been no recent indication that timely maintenance may be forthcoming.

I'm temporarily disabling it, to give you an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

You are responsible for occasional visits to your cache to ensure it is in proper working order, especially when someone reports a problem with the cache (missing, damaged, wet, etc.) or posts a Needs Maintenance log. Temporarily disable your cache to let others know not to search for it until you have addressed the problem.

Please enable your cache by selecting 'enable' on the right hand side of the listing , once the cache has been replaced/repaired, or checked that it is still in situ.

The Geocache Maintenance guideline explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported.

Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained in the Help Center

If you no longer wish to maintain the cache then the listing should be archived.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness. If you plan on repairing this cache,but cannot get to it within 30 days, please log a note to the cache page (not email) to let the community know

Thank you for understanding

Geocache Description:

Matrindindi

 


Matrindindi ou Matrindinde é um género de insecto ortóptero da família dos acrídios, de que faz parte o gafanhoto. Apesar das semelhanças, o Matrindindi é muito mais extravagante, com um abdómen colorido e uma ‘armadura’ com alguns picos.

 

Pode apresentar várias cores entre os tons de verde, castanho, roxo e até preto. Existem em várias zonas do país, incluindo a bela zona de Benguela. Durante os meses de Maio e Junho é possível vê-los e ouvir o seu barulho característico ao final da tarde.

Aparece a seguir à época das chuvas (Março) e apesar de ter umas pernas longas, não salta.


- Poema - 

O Canto do Matrindinde

O canto do Martrindinde
é um canto da cidade
vem pela noite dentro
cheio de ambiguidade

O canto do Martrindinde
é um canto da cidade
vem pela noite dentro
cheio de ambiguidade

O canto do Matrindinde
é um cantar nacional  
veio do mato à cidade  
e tornou-se universal.

Ernesto Lara Filho
in O Canto do Martrindinde

Luanda, União/Endiama, 1989, p.64
