Geocache Description:


It is recommended that you only look for these during daylight hours only.  That way it is easier for the Search and Rescue folks to find you.  We had good cell service in this area.

With its pink-and-white plumage, bare head, and spatulate-shaped bill, the roseate spoonbill (Platalea ajaja) is a target bird for many birders visiting Florida. These coastal wading birds can occasionally be found inland as well, often with flocks of ibises, egrets, and herons. Their plumage is most brilliantly colored during the summer breeding season, and immature birds are much paler.  The Roseate Spoonbill (Platalea ajaja) is now expanding its range northward from its usual South Florida range. The male and female look alike. It is similar to an American Flamingo.

Size: About the size of a Crane.

Habitat: It favors the shallow areas of ponds and marshes.

There will be times you will find some caches several feet away from the posted GZ location because of many reasons beyond our control.  Clouds, Trees, Solar Flares, power lines, the movement of Magnetic North, the Navigation Satellites being calibrated, and your GPSr not recently calibrated, not forgetting someone did not place it back where they found it and the list goes on.

Remember to use caution, this is Florida and there is a long list of things for you to be aware of and you may have encountered or heard stories about most of them in the past.  Groundspeak, Inc. is not responsible or libel for any of your incidents or injuries while headed to a Geocache, while searching for a Geocache, or headed back after Geocaching in any way.

Some will be easy to find and some not so easy to find.  Here, you are looking for a pill bottle.
