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.
I used some potting soil out of last years hanging flower baskets in this tub to plant onions.
The onions did great and then the flowers came up.
Thank you for your visit comments and faves much appreciated!
Have a great day!

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

I have not been able to volunteer at my local SPCA due to COVID 19. I really miss the cats and dogs.
April 25 is ANZAC Day in Australia and New Zealand. ANZAC stands for "Australian and New Zealand Army Corps". I will say more about this tomorrow.
Here are two young modern day volunteers who are part of the Tasmanian Lighthorse Regiment Historical Troop. They were making an appearance at Sheffield during the recent Steamfest.
