Do bats and birds ever fight? Obviously they are nocturnal and diurnal, respectively, and have different roosting/nesting habits, but they do compete for many of the same food resources. Has there ever been any observation of crepuscular turf wars or clashes? And if not, why not? Whatever the answer it might still make for a fun (bad) made-for-TV sci-fi movie.
