Ladybugs that stash in your house instead of in a log end up waking from winter dormancy earlier than their prey does. They inevitably starve and exhaust their calories. In an old house you can sometimes discover a nook somewhere and uncover a graveyard of thousands of them.by gausswho

I have watched seagulls commuting back and forth at midnight, as city lighting at scale around a large harbour seems to work for some of them. Country gulls still commute at regular diurnal schedules, or at least there still isn't enough light to watch things flying at night. I have watched crows that specialise in catching stuned insects on the verges where a busy hyway intersects a large stretch of mature healthy forest, but not anywhere else.Though I can see smaller birds getting used to crumbs and ends bieng tossed from early commuters breakfasts on the fly.by metalman
