Meet the first four of the nearly dozen Follow Me [1] authors as they share their summer of conservation and exploration with us.
Serena Doose, Aroostook NWR [2]
"When climbing a tree, I need to trust that I can indeed control my arms and legs, and that I am not just going to randomly fall out of the tree. I am in control. It's such a liberating feeling."
Kayla Morain, SW Louisiana NWR [3]
"I am blessed that I get to have this opportunity. Everyone has a starring role in conservation because we all play a role on this earth. What can be more important than the Earth we share with each other? And if I, the artsy Texan who can't tell the difference between a crow and a grackle - I can now - can play a role, then you certainly can make a difference as well."
Katie Serock, Rachel Carson NWR [4]
"I love how different every day is at Rachel Carson. One day I'll be on the beach, another I'll be in the salt marsh, and then the next day I'll be in the office working on some type of project. There are only four weeks left until the end of my internship so I'm going to continue to take in every moment and enjoy the time I have left here."
Alexis Herb, Minnesota Valley NWR [5]
"It was definitely worth being out in the elements, even though I suspect my jeans will never be dry again. The lightning shows in Minnesota are much brighter and send more bolts down to earth and through the sky than the ones I'm used to. If absolutely nothing else, I'll remember the thunderstorms here for years to come."
