This cache has been archived.

The A-Team: It's time to put this series to rest. Most of it lasted almost 11 years, so it had a good run. This container has been removed. The final will remain in place for a short time so anyone who hadn't found it yet can do so.

Geocache Description:

This cache is part of a series highlighting invasive species in the CRD. Many of these species are now so common, you probably see them every day. Some are damaging, others are a nuisance, but none are native to Victoria. Each cache will contain one digit in the coordinates for the final, GC2VRDP.
All caches are 1 litre, 5”x8”x2.5” Lock’n’Locks.


European Starling
Latin name: Sturnus vulgaris
Native region: Europe, Asia, North Africa
Introduced region: New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, North America
Reason for introduction: Aesthetic purposes
Threats: Crop damage, displacement of native bird species, spreading of disease to humans and livestock

Starlings are cavity nesters, so the most likely place to spot them is where there are things such as hollow telephone poles and holey trees. They are so widespread, however, that you can now see them almost anywhere.
