I loved being able to maintain and feed all the caterpillars and butterflies. The garden was my project all summer and I was able to tend to it, and then educate all ages.
What I wish was different
The time of the year it happened. It was hot.
Advice
Make sure you take time to study and understand all the 20+ species you are working with.

Butterfly House/Education Intern
May 2019 • Monkton, MD
What I liked
I really liked being able to learn a lot about butterflies and the life cycle. I also enjoyed getting more experience with environmental education.
What I wish was different
I felt like it was very independent I would have loved working more with other interns but with differing schedules it didn't work out.
Advice
Be open to learning about something you may not initially have been interested in.
