I used to live one block up from a ballpark, and could climb out on
my roof to watch the evening/night games. It didn't matter that I
couldn't see the diamond, 'cause I was really watching the nighthawks
swooping through the bug soup. The huge lights drew in bugs from all
around, making for some easy meals, as long as the birds avoided
'pop' flies! (:
