Do cranes and pelicans hunt and eat fish at night in southeast Florida?

Cranes and pelicans primarily hunt and eat fish during the day in Southeast Florida. While pelicans are known for their daytime fishing techniques, such as diving and surface dipping, cranes typically forage for food, including fish, in the early morning or late afternoon. However, some birds may occasionally be active at night, especially in areas with artificial lighting, but this is not their primary behavior. Overall, their hunting and feeding activities are more concentrated during daylight hours.
