I love owls. Anyone who has seen my car, knows I have a bright pink owl trackable in my back window... the curtains in our travel trailer have owls, I have owl placemats and towels in our kitchen... I like owls. So much so, that I have placed a new series about owls, to share my love. :)
This is one of the 6 traditional caches in the Owl Prowl series. In each of the 6 traditional caches, you will find a number and letter code, written on the inside of the lid. The number with be a two digit number, and the format will be A=11 (for example, the actual code is not A=11). Make sure you record these 6 numbers, as you will need them later to find the Owl Prowl - FINALE wherigo cache. This wherigo cache will require the 6 codes from the 6 traditional caches.
All of the 6 traditional caches are designed to be relatively easy finds. Each can be found on their own as a stand-alone cache, and there is absolutely no pressure to do the wherigo cache if you do not want to. You can still claim 6 cache finds by finding the 6 traditionals. Only the finale cache requires info not provided directly on the cache page.
This cache was placed as I was hiking the trail one day, after I noticed an owl pellet on the trail. Obviously there are owls in the area, but despite hiking this trail numerous times I have never seen one. If anyone does see an owl along here, PLEASE take a picture or let me know! I would love to do a nightime owl prowl (owl birdwatching excursion) here someday.
Take time to enjoy the scenery here, as you may also be able to spot deer, chickadees, cardinals, blue jays, woodpeckers, squirrels, rabbits, and coyotes. Take care not to destroy their habitat - this is their home.
The cache itself is a small jar with room for trade items, small trackables and geocoins. There are a few items to start it off. Please remember to trade up or trade even. Pay special attention to the attributes on this series as well, so you know what to expect. Stay safe, and happy caching!
