From blanket fairs to night kings, curfews to crime, At Day's Close is an intriguing and captivating investigation into the night. Until now, this rich and complex universe in which we spend nearly half of our lives was a world long-lost to historians. Here, Ekirch explores how the night was lived in the past, through travel accounts, memoirs, letters, folklore, poems, court records and coroner's reports. More than this, it is a passionate argument in the case for less artificial light in an increasingly bright world.

Platypuses are mammals unlike any other on earth. They lay eggs, ooze milk through their skin, and can sense electricity. In this episode, we travel with a platypus as he moves through his nightly routine on the island of Tasmania. He uses electroreceptors to hunt underwater and does a synchronized swimming courtship ritual with his mate, who then digs a burrow 40 feet deep into the riverbank to nest.

Fennec foxes’ ears can be up to half as long as their bodies. They use them to track movement across the Sahara Desert, including under the sand. In this episode, we follow a fox as he meanders home to his family through the sand dunes as they slowly shift with the wind.

You are but a speck in the life of a water mill that has ground corn since Alfred the Great was king of England. I was, at first, oblivious to these obligations when I set sight on this derelict mill in the eccentrically named village of Nether Wallop in southern England. The burbling Wallop Brook, a chalkstream, flowed around, under and beside the mill.

Qui aurait dit, il y a seulement quelques années, que les plantes étaient capables de réagir au vol d'une abeille, ou les corbeaux de réconforter un congénère blessé ? Qu'il suffisait aux poulpes d'observer un comportement pour le mémoriser, ou que des singes avaient créé un protolangage en associant plusieurs sons dans un même cri ? Non, Sapiens n'a pas le monopole de l'intelligence !
