Go soon so you can see the baby birds in the nest! (Can anyone verify this is an Osprey nest?)
It will be better if you park on Lawton Lane rather than Shields. Keeps you further from muggles, etc.

I chose this spot because every day on my way home from work I have to stop at the light and I get to see the birds in the huge nest. Make sure to look up and check it out before leaving the area.

If the bullet micro cache is still there, help yourself. Perhaps you'll find the perfect hiding place for it.

Replaced container with one that is water tight. New log. Good to go. Coords are off a bit but don't give up. Recommended parking is another great hint.

Find was pretty easy. Didn't sign. Log is water logged. And I didn't have a replacement. Clever ladybug in the container. TFTC. Your suggestion about where to park is perfect.

No luck finding the cache, but the Ospreys were flying around.

No luck. The coordinates put it in the canal. I hunted around as much as I could, but didn't find anything.
