Dornwood Park, Topeka, KS: Pack Out Your Trash!
With Spring approaching we seized the opportunity to travel to Topeka, KS and explore a new trail! There are many trails in the area that we have been wanting to visit and this one was first on our list! The trail didn't dissapoint with views! Remnants of an old dairy, awesome overlooks of Deer Creek, an old well, and plenty of signs of wildlife made this a very worthwhile hike. Unfortunately, the trail is littered with trash which took away some of our enjoyment. Still, we highly recommend this trail. If you do go, make sure to have a map or GPS with you as the trailmarkers can be quite confusing!
Efforts are currently under way to improve this trail. You can find out more in the link below.

Around Kansas - Bobcats in Kansas - January 18, 2017
(Frank) We weren't gone long. We're back again. (Deb) So, this next segment is about bobcats. Have you ever seen a bobcat in the wild? (Frank) Well, not in the wild but also in town. (Deb) Well, that would be sort of wild depending on which night it was, you know. (Frank) You could kind of recognize them because they are larger than most cats but they have this little short tail. (Deb) They have a little short tail and tufted ears. (Frank) And so you know when that's a bobcat do not go pet it. (Deb) I'm telling you what…growing up in the country like I did of course we saw bobcats. You don't see them that often doesn't mean they're not there but once you hear one I'm telling you I had one at daddy's farm was out in the middle of nowhere, and I pull up one night, and stopped the car and I think Noelle was a baby. It's her birthday. Happy birthday. So, I'm just sitting there in the dark fumbling with something before I get stuff out, and I hear something walking around the car and I hear it growl. I knew what it was, I had never really heard one before but I know by process of elimination I said, It's not a normal cat. But you could hear it walking even though it was just a bobcat. They're pretty interesting creatures. Let's take a look. Much more common and quite a bit smaller than mountain lions, bobcats can still strike fear in the heart of the hiker or rancher who happens upon them. Their growl, their bark, their scream -- well, it can make the hair stand up on the back of your neck. Bobcats get their name from their short or bobbed tail. They have long legs; toes with retractable claws, dark spotted reddish-brown fur on top and gray fur with black spots on their belly. They don't dig their own dens but take advantage of what nature offers in brush piles, hollow logs, caves and in rock outcroppings. They hunt alone from dusk to dawn and rarely use the same daytime resting area. Studies in Kansas reveal that a male bobcat may hunt over an eight-mile territory, while females hunt over a much smaller ground. Bobcats mark their territories with urine and feces or scratching trees. In Kansas these territories are usually scrublands or woodlands. They mostly eat rabbits and hares, mice, birds and other small creatures, but can take down an injured or small deer. While the kitten is vulnerable, the adults have few predators other than man, though may be killed in territorial disputes with larger animals. In the wild, the bobcat can live up to 14 years. An adult might weigh anywhere from 15 to 30 pounds. So, is the bobcat the same thing as a lynx? While bobcats and lynxes are separate species, they do belong to the same genus, which, coincidentally, happens to be the Lynx genus. There are four different species belonging to this group -- three of which share the family name: the Eurasian lynx, the Spanish or Iberian lynx and the Canadian lynx. The fourth member, the most common cat native to North America, is the previously mentioned bobcat. The Lynx genus, with its four species, has the largest range out of all the cats. The Eurasian lynx the most numerous and widespread of the four species can be found throughout Western Europe and Northern Asia, while the Spanish lynx the rarest of the four is found only in Spain and Portugal. The Canadian lynx lives primarily in Canada and a handful of northern U.S. states including Maine, Minnesota, Montana, Wyoming and Washington. So when Europeans came to North America, they encountered a cat a little different than the one they had known in the old country. The native peoples had many stories about the bobcat, and different tribes imbued the creature with different spiritual meaning. Bobcat is used as a clan animal in some Native American cultures. Tribes with Bobcat Clans include the Creek and the Chickasaw. In the Pawnee tribe, Bobcat is a more mythologically important character associated with the stars. Pawnee parents used to wrap their babies in bobcat furs to bring them celestial blessings.
