Went to bed at 10pm woke up, got out of bed 1:30 am so ? Will go back to bed once done here.

I think I am night owl, and early bird getting worms

It probably depends on what time of day you were born? Like in stories about Jesus, he was born at night. And he napped during the day during storms.

I have to take siesta in afternoon especially when hot I droop. I have fallen asleep at work a few times - boring meetings will do that, and boring jobs. I fall asleep reading books. I fall asleep in long movies.

One time I went on a lunch date, and fell asleep afterward in the park on the grass. My date did not know what to do while I was sleeping/napping. I think he just lay there watching me sleep.

Now I am retired, my routine is borderline ridiculous. Bedtime is usually between 3 and 4 am. I usually sleep no more than 5 hours. My wife used to be in bed by 10. Now she goes to bed about the same time as me.

So couples can adapt to each others sleep patterns. Works for us, anyway.

kiwis are nocturnal birds.

The mating habits of kiwis may surprise you, the eggs are huge, the kiwi cannot fly, and the daddy kiwi looks after the mummy kiwi and the baby kiwi while the mummy kiwi looks for food. Mostly huhu grubs. They live in cavities in trees, like the folk in the faraway tree.
 
Also when you go see a kiwi, they only come out at night, so when you go the zoo they have reversed the day and night and you must enter a dark room where you can see kiwi if your eyes adjust to the darkness. And you have to be very quiet. Loud noises disturb them. Kiwis sleep during the day in their little tree houses, kind of like hobbits.
 
BTW in case you are wondering, Kiwis are native to New Zealand they can ONLY be found there. They are brown, but there is the occasional white kiwi which is very rare because white stands out in the dark. Almost like a ghost kiwi?!
 
We have nocturnal owls too, which Maori call 'Morepork' because of the sound they make 'morepork! morepork' just as kiwis make the 'kiwi' sounds.
 
One more thing, I don't think I've ever seen birds of a feather, not flocking together, like a kiwi cannot marry a morepork and produce korepokes or miwis. It just doesn't work that way. Simple biology.

But brown kiwis can marry white kiwis. As they are both kiwis.
