Nocturnal: Animals After Dark

The incredible world of the animals, plants, and other natural phenomena that live their lives throughout the night.

Most living things are active as long as the sun shines in the sky, but at dusk, when the light dims, life continues. The moonlight illuminates the Earth, plants come to life, animals awaken and some organisms glow like jewels in the dark. For these creatures, plants and natural phenomena, the night falls and another day begins. Nocturnal is a beautiful invitation to come along and learn all about these mysteries of the night.
