Bobolinks! Citizen Science at the McAllister WildLife Refuge

On Saturday June 1st, 2024, 17 Volunteers worked to contribute a total of 57 hours to help keep the verdent woodland adjacent to Lake Mansfield a healthy habitat for native plant species. Some of our team have volunteered many times before, some were new volunteers wanting to lend a hand. It is amazing to see how much can be done when we join up to do good work.
