Did you ever hear birds singing at night? Well, I know you Europeans, excluding the ones far north, Central Asians, and North and Central Africans do at night. Well, the bird you were hearing was probably the Nightingale. It sings mostly at night and live mostly in Temperate Deciduous Forests. For this biome, it consumes fruits, berries, spiders, worms, insects and insect larvae. It consumes the bugs so that they don't overpopulate and eats their share of berries and fruits so that other organism who also feed on the Nightingale's diet don't overpopulate. The Nightingale has adapted to Temperate Deciduous Forests by thier nests' structure and area. The Nitingales make their nests hidden in thicket close to ground. They don't just put their nest anywhere, they want to keep it safe from prey, so they hide it. Also, they make their nests from twigs and leaves lined with grass. The TDF's material is specifically chosen by the Nitingale to survive the weather conditions. Since the TDFs have 4 seasons, the NItingale adapted to the weather by choosing the leaves and twigs.
