2005 Rescue and Release "Bart" Bart came to MWR shortly after Hurricane Katrina. This orphaned fledgling required several months of nursing and rehabiliation before it could survive on its own and was released. The Whippoorwill inhabits woodland areas where it sleeps during the daytime and hunts moths and other night insects. Camouflaged to hide in dead leaves, this bird nests on the ground, and has a distinctive "whip-poor-will" call that is a lovely evening song. Loss of Mississippi's woodland habitat has caused this bird to decline in numbers. |
