One thing that really bothers me in books, is when the characters can't see, just because it's nighttime. Humans would healthy eyes (even my eyes that need glasses) can see extremely well in unobstructed starlight or moonlight, where you can even see the difference between a deer and a horse. Now I understand when the light is shaded, like they can't see in an alley, a dark house or very crowded forest, because there's less light to adjust to, if any light at all.
Now I also find it reasonable if a character has a torch or campfire, because the eyes have adjusted to the brighter light, so everything else looks pitch black.
Trust me when I say, if a character can't see a terrifying beast at night in an open field, that's not believable to me (unless the beast can camouflage, even in the day).
Sometimes it does feel like an author has only experienced night time inside their house or in the fields with a torch, you can see well at night (not as well as daylight obviously, so you won't be able to see bugs well), as long as your eyes aren't adjusted to a brighter light.
This is a writing tip and ted talk lol
