When we volunteer, at what ever interests or inspires us, getting a paycheck is the last thing on our mind. However, the fringe benefits can be rewarding! This was seen before time spent at the Muscatatuck Visitor Center; I always make a point to go in ahead of time and wander a bit. Bobcats are not uncommon in Indiana, but are rarely seen. Yesterday morning, at Muscatatuck NWR, just after sunrise, it was a combination of right place/right time, dumb luck, but also paying attention to surroundings. A plain, brown lump along the road a ways ahead suddenly rose and crossed in to some woods and brush. It was immediately obvious that it was a bobcat-and I figured it was long gone. I slowly pulled forward, managed to spot the bobcat, and (with shaking hands!) got a very few shots.

While out tracking two circling eagles of some sort, I found this tiny spring volunteer!
My first attempt to capture this tiny yellow flower suffered from an austere dynamic range. I asked my tolerant husband to hold the translucent photo umbrella over the wee fleur and felt more satisfied. (Almost-midday photos need an umbrella and a tolerant spouse.) Heavy rain last night and dew this morning.
Thanks for looking!
I sometimes wonder that ... But when you do and you go and live with them their pain and sorrow all makes sense ... Volunteers give love, love, hope, support ... Volunteers live worldwide
My dad planted flowers here probably 20-25 years ago. I haven't done anything with his former flowerbed since we bought the house 15 years ago, but every year, we get a few volunteers.

The camera software for the iPhone 14 has been updated and this is the first time I have used it. Mostly because I had forgotten to bring the spare battery for the Canon.
I have not been able to volunteer at my local SPCA due to COVID 19. I really miss the cats and dogs.
