We visited a good friend who lives in the path of totality for the eclipse. It was great; the birds stopped singing and the crickets and frogs piped up.

That's interesting - when the eclipse came almost right over us in 2017, all the birds came up from the beach a few minutes before and it was quite noisy for a bit. And then the eclipse happened, and the ALL the birds went silent. It's one of the most memorable things for me.
But now that you talk about your experience, I realize the approximately one gazillion frogs nearby us were also silent. I wonder what made the difference.
