Geocache Description:


Congratulations to Bouffe for her late night FTF!

To claim this Virtual Cache, you MUST EITHER post a selfie of yourself WITH the woodpeckers; OR post a photo of your geo-name (on anything) WITH the woodpeckers. The choice is yours! (Sorry, NO photoshopped images.)

IMPORTANT NOTE: Logs that skip the above requirements will unfortunately fly south for the winter (will be deleted.)

 

The 98-foot-tall (30 meters) black steel column was created by Fastwürms, a Canadian artist collective, and installed in 1997. The piece is freckled with round holes so it resembles a tree trunk its two avian residents have routinely hammered.

The birds are over 6.5 feet (two meters) tall. One is a yellow-bellied sapsucker, the other a pileated woodpecker. Both species are native to Canada and the United States.
