Mississippi is home to many flying creatures, and although we love talking about our birds, today we want to discuss a flying mammal: bats. Alison McCartney, a wildlife biologist, joins us today to tell us all about Mississippi’s bats, how important they are to our ecosystem, and whether or not you should be concerned when you come in contact with one.

The Mississippi population is well aware of our noisy neighbors that emerge periodically in the summer – the cicada. Every Mississippian is all too familiar with their croaks, but how familiar are you with the cicada itself? Today, we’re joined by Brady Dunaway from the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science who will tell us all about these chattering creatures.
