Annica and I are beginning to collect volunteer submissions
for the 2018 remote pond/ coastal stream survey. The Brook Trout Project report
for 2017 is awaiting publishing, as we have finished all our data entries and
sent the document off to MDIFW (Maine Dep. Of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife). After
editing this report, originally written by another author, the extreme importance
of detail-attentiveness was proven to me yet again. It is so easy to miss very small details, and
takes several revisions to ensure consistency… Particularly if you’re not
writing something first-hand. I’m sure I will run into report revision/editing
again, and this work served as a valuable lesson in ‘taking out a microscope’
when re-reading scientific lit.
I completed my presentation in Dr. Jack Hopkins’ class this
week, and it was exciting to be back on campus. I am so happy to have had the
chance to engage with Dr. Hopkins throughout this internship. He is a wealth of
knowledge, extremely supportive and eager to learn about what we were up to
over at Audubon. I extend to him my utmost appreciation for being my sponsor.
Annica and I are continuing to work together even after my internship
is completed. I am so happy I can maintain this amazing partnership. Annica
inspires me to be my best and is very encouraging in every way, the ideal
person to have in your life after graduating college. I’m so lucky to have had
this internship and can’t wait to see what comes next!
