Combo of the temps and the moon phase
As we get closer to the full moon, do you think it makes them more vocal at night and less vocal during daylight hours?

Some people laugh at this, but it can be a great technique as long as you're careful to not spook them out of the area before shooting light, and aren't afraid of the dark

Not so much vocal as active in general. And it has less to do with the moon being full as much as it has to do when the moon rises and sets. Photo period tells them when to get up and start moving to the feeding areas and when the moon rises while the sun is still out, it tends to tell them it's time to move to the feeding areas earlier than they normally would i.e. being out and moving during the daytime. I have a chart I'll post when I get home. I can't find it on my work computer.

What do you do if you are afraid of the dark? Serious question :sry:

That makes sense. I wonder if cloud cover effects that or if that matters at all.
