Birds singing in the middle of the night?

I have noticed this for a few months now.

I wonder if it has anything to do with the magnetics of the planet?

I remember seeing somewhere that the sound of the planet earth is similar to the sound of birds chirping.

I wonder if there is any connection.

Birds DO NOT sleep. It isn't the least bit unusual for them to be chattering at all hours.




.

Most likely it's the Northern Mockingbird. I live in a canyon where the males seeking mates sing their heads off all night long all spring well into the summer. Look it up.

Do people ever use google before posting?

Thankfully, I did a search and realized that this is a widespread issue, across the entire WORLD, over the last few weeks/months.

Fuck you, shills.

I've just been outside my house tonight and I nearly fell over, a Kookaburra (its a bird in case you haven't heard of it before related to Kingfishers) was laughing away in a tree down the back of the house. It's pretty normal during the day but its 8pm at night been dark for 2 hours or so and its winter time here.

Never Ever Happen Before in my life time.

The same threads just keep popping up over and over for years on end...

Sounds like hell freezing all over.

was walking in the woods the other day in asheville nc, and found hundreds and what would of been thousands of dead birds if i kept looking. never seen anything like, i was not one type of bird, it was robins and doves and mocking birds and black birds... i cannot beleave this shit is really happening ....

They sing here at midnight, then it varies sometimes later like one in the morning. Los angeles. It's like they are confused ,don't know what time it is. I have also heard from relatives back east that there isn't as many lightning bugs as there were before?

I've noticed the same thing. Maybe it's the pole shift.

yes, heard them again here night befor last very loud, looked at the clock and it was 1:12 am, I don't think this is normal at all. Central Kansas here.

You are not alone. One of my peeps in your local reported this same thing. This is not typical for birds in the area. Yes, we are with you on this one.

I've noticed this here too in southwestern PA.

I often have insomnia and am quite frequently outside having a smoke at 3 or 4 am. I have been doing this for years. Nothing really unusual about that. Therefore, I have become accustomed to the local night sounds; whether it is traffic patterns, night owls hooting, raccoons screeking or roving deer.

Just lately, however, I have noticed that the birds are tweeting - sometimes madly - at odd hours of the night.

I know that some here have suggested nightingales or whippoorwills or owls - that is not what it is. It's common daylight birds like crows and sparrows and jays. They are getting agitated at night - as the OP suggested - for no reason that I know of. I don't know what is causing it but it is NOT normal.

It seems to have been more and more common lately.

Also netherlands.
But thats a couple of years now that im hearing this.
Dont know why.

Here in Vegas too. It's been going on about a week or so between 11pm and 3am. Thought it was weird myself.

No it's called spring. I've worked night shift for 10 years happens every year.

hehe, last spring we had these same threads popping up :)

Birds most definitely do sing at night.

I agree , the birds are acting strange this year , i have lived in the same place for 6 years , for 6 years i have worked on the pc until 3am (i am from UK) , my bedroom window looks directly on to a small wooded area , 3 weeks ago for the first time in 6 years i heard birds singing at 2am , and since then its been every night , sorry but no one can tell me this is normal , and i was so shocked when i typed in google "Birds singing at 2am" and got 100's of pages about others experiencing the same thing , my guess would be magnetic pole shifting as we all know birds are tuned to the magnetics of the earth , magnetic pole shifting would explain all the strange animal behaviour over the last years , look it up and see how much we are shifting per DAY

i noticed this too, i was gonna post on here about it on christmas eve but i thought fuck it its just birds, strange though

I've heard it too. I'm a light sleeper and my hubby and I have been up between 2AM EST and 3:30AM every day birds or no birds. While I have heard birds at night previously, its very rare, whereas its become commonplace now. My guess is people and birds are having a problem with their body clock due to changes in some environmental factor. Magnetic/atmospheric/sonic...no clue I just know things are different.

LOL birds do not sleep..... they must be immortal
