Is that a bomb? No, it's a geocache!

I just heard on the radio that someone found a "suspicious object" in a tree near a local recreation centre. They called the police. The police took pictures of it and sent the pictures to the bomb squad. The bomb squad said, "Well, it doesn't LOOK like a bomb, but better safe than sorry," and advised the police to call the military. (We don't have a bomb squad on our Island, so the military takes care of most explosive things.) The military came out, took a look and said, "That's not a bomb. That's a geocache."

I'm wondering what that geocache looked like to make someone mistake it for a bomb.
