A really interesting paper just came out in Science a few weeks ago: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adv9472
The authors compared satellite measurements of #LightPollution from #VIIRS_DNB to 2.6 million bird calls recorded at 7,824 locations around the world. They show not only that birds sing longer at both morning and night in areas that are brighter, but that the response is different for different species.
For example, species with larger eyes are more strongly affected, and species that nest in cavities (protected from light exposure) are less affected.
Very cool work!
