I spent years volunteering, for a local wildlife group, feeding baby birds and re-habbing small mammals and waterfowl. I also volunteered for migratory winter bird counts for Cornell lab of ornithology , as a 4-H youth group leader, teaching poultry keeping and taking my group of kids to the the local county fair to show/exhibit their birds. Total years of volunteering, about 17.
Now that I have been wiped out in the great recession these past 3 years, well…the only thing I am volunteering for now is my own future survival. haha
I enjoyed all of my volunteer work, especially helping/saving animals and knowing I made an impact and created fun memories for a lot of kids.
