BTW, BSD find require file(s) as argument, GNU find use '.'
if no files given. So the manpage and usage string are wrong

$ man find
       find [-H | -L | -P] [-Xdx] [-f file] [file ...] expression
$ find
usage: find [-H | -L | -P] [-Xdx] [-f file] [file ...] [expression]


should be:
find [-H | -L | -P] [-Xdx] [-f file] file ... [expression]
