    Most sleep at night, most cannot handle the complications of flying in the dark, sleeping reduces the chance the bird will attempt night flight that results in some crash.
    The birds that do sleep are safe unless you see them in the dark with a flashlight, you can slowly walk to them and capture them without a struggle than can hurt the bird. As the previous answer stated, owls and others are night birds, during a full moon, sleeping birds can navigate enough to escape a predator that stumbled to close.

    Edited for some bad grammar
