Congo Camp 2010

A butterfly and caterpillar that an EcoQuest camper made.

EcoQuest campers are leaving this morning on their trip to the Butterfly exhibit at the Maryland Botanical Gardens.  These campers prepared yesterday by making their own butterflies.

They didn't only make butterflies, though, but they actually made cocoons and caterpillars.  Talking with these campers, one can easily learn about all of the various stages of a butterfly and how exactly a caterpillar makes that transition. 

We know these campers will have fun on their trip today, and we are excited to see the many pictures they take of the many butterflies they see.
