How will animals react to the solar eclipse

[Catherine]

There is little clear documentation about animal behavior during an eclipse. They occur so seldom that it is hard to study the reaction of animals.
On August 21 North America, in particular, the USA will experience a total solar eclipse.
Scientists are hoping that ordinary people will make a point of observing animal behavior and sharing it with them.

The eclipse will be interesting enough, but the chance to study animal reactions will be exciting.
Sadly most of us will not being seeing this eclipse so we can't observe animal behavior.

I do hope many people contribute their observations. I am curious to learn how different animals react to such a major event.
