Geocache Description:


A cousin of the scrub jays common in the western United States and Mexico, the Florida scrub jay is found only in the Sunshine State. These birds are about a foot long from head to tail and mostly blue, like blue jays. They have a light gray forehead and white throat. Their crestless head is blue, and so are their wings and long, loose, tail feathers. Their beak and legs are black, and their back and leg feathers are gray. Young ones, less than 6 months old, have a brownish head and neck. The last recorded population count of Florida scrub jays is just a little over 2,000, mostly located in the Kennedy Space Center but also in some scattered scrubs all over central and southern Florida. Hopefully, while now labeled as threatened and protected by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service and the Florida Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission, the jays will have a fighting chance at survival in their designated preserves and sanctuaries. This cache is located in a wonderful little park, so as always, please be courteous of the surroundings. The cache is located about ten feet off the path and very little bush wacking is needed. You are looking for a very large cammoed pvc container (aka “A Goodie Tube”) hidden Florida style. The park closes at sunset. Please be courteous to me, the surroundings of the park and to the next cacher and hide back appropriately! Thanks!
