You know, I'm going to have to look more closely for those light-bulb
sockets.  Usually I just don't see them I guess.  I'm guessing in the
desert they must be under some kind of panels built right into the
rocks, and in the woods they're probably carefully camouflaged under
little trap doors in the sides of the trees?
