  • lol...that bird is mimicking almost every bird of the area! Wow,,,,impressive! But that's someones pet. Either a love bird, parakeet, or african grey....omg...that is so funny and would be annoying!

  • buy a pellet gun lol

  • Thats a mockingbird for sure. Zero doubt.

  • Sounds like a mockingbird by all the different variations...he probably can't sleep either because of the giant light right next to his bedroom.

  • Comment removed

  • Well, for me it has beautiful sounds and don't mind the train...have heard these sounds all my life....really don't mind it at all. Sadly, I don't believe it is the bird or the train's fault but something perhaps with your ability to sleep. Once I go to sleep....the next thing I know it is morning....nothing like this keeps me awake. Certainly never enough to consider doing harm to the bird.

  • It sounds like a Mocking Bird...it can imitate the calls of other birds & objects & machines 2

  • okay this bird is not nocturnal. He was around today at 2pm. I know it's him because he did the same routine he does at night, PLUS extra 'ringtones' that I guess are for the day, not night. Like, wtf.... Don't birds need to sleep, eat, and poop? I think this bird does meth or coke, something that just keeps it up for days at a time. I hope he overdoses

  • get animal control to transfer it deep into the woods :P

  • lol shoot the light out then it won't have a night light

  • I swear the same bird was singing outside my window last night at 2AM! He was doing the car alarm and everything. Apparently, Northern Mockingbirds do that at night when they are looking for a mate. I'm praying this lonely guy gets hooked up soon!

  • That definitely sounds like a mockingbird to me. I'm not sure why it's decided that 2am is a good time for a serenade though - maybe it has something to do with the bright light?

  • And I don't know if this is a coincidence, but I am also a half mile from the train tracks/station. Trains are no where near as disturbing or annoying as this bird is.

  • @eeshustylez I'm close to a set of train tracks and have this unholy bird outside my window too. Let me know if you find a solution. Its affecting my health. I'd have killed it by now but it goes quite as soon as I shine the flashlight into the trees so I can't find it.

  • I hate this f'n bird. It never fails to show up in a tree in my backyard next to my bedroom window ever night. It's 5:50am right now and it's still going since it started around midnight. It is absolutely non-stop, as if it doesn't need a moment to breathe or eat or do any other activity except for annoy the crap out of me. And it's such a f'n loser as well, doesn't have any friends or significant others. I'm currently seeking a final solution instead of pelting rocks at the tree

  • thats not a normal bird. Its replicating almost ever other breeds calls

  • what was on 0:36? a train?

  • This is actually kind of funny to listen to. It sounds more like a tape recording of various sounds played at full volume. I swear I heard it do a car alarm, a cricket, a dial tone, trumpeting, computer errors, other car sounds, and about a thousand different bird calls from other types of birds.

    I've been woken up at night by a very loud "night" bird before, too. I didn't take it as easily. I was really angry. All I could think was "Doesn't anyone have a gun" I'm a very light sleeper.

  • It's beautiful! Music to go to sleep to.

    Those sounds mean that everything is alright and that you are safe.

    It's Nature!  And guess what? YOU are part of Nature, whether you like it or not.

  • YOu Guys are absolutley correct!, The birds Have replicated Car Alarm sounds as well as rusty screen doors, its also cause otherwise daytime birds to become very nocturnal. Im sure anyone 30+ years of age knows well of a time when the night was silent but only for the sounds of frogs or crickets and birds actually slept until dawn. This really started to take full effect about a decade ago. The birds themselves hearing the car alarms must have assumed it other birds.

  • Wow! That bird has an amazing array of sounds! I JUST now recorded a night bird call, same time as you did yours, and I wish I knew what kind of bird it was cause it was hauntingly beautiful.

  • Wow!!! It has an amazing array of different calls! I JUST recorded one myself about 10 minuits ago, same time, and Im dying to know what kind of bird it is!! Do you know what yours is?

  • THaaat is soo funny cuz my boyfriend called me up last night at almost 1am and was freaking out cuz a bird outside his window..that sounded EXACTLY like this..was keeping him up. im cracking up right now cuz like when he was talking to me on the phone aaall you were able to hear was this insaanee bird screaming his head off and i could barely hear him! but seriously it sounded absolutely identicle to this!! lol he said it was a lost bird or or something, lost bird?? lol

  • Mockingbirds!!!! We have them here in Connecticut, too! :)

  • Comment removed

  • I like it :)

  • i live on the north side of chicago and i have the same problem, i think they're Northern Mockingbirds but im not sure, they drive me to the point of insanity. i'm also a very light sleeper and earplugs dont always stay in plus they irritate my ears after a while. it sounds like they have a nest right by my window and the goddamn birds are training their new family how to sing. it's all night long, im seriously considering buy a bb gun with a scope

  • Yeah. I like these birds. Especially the car alarm number. The ones by my moms house got the stray cats and dogs and even that stupid R&B song ' Birthday Sex' down to the very ridiculous chourus perfectly. Lmao! If I catch it singing that particular sing however, it's getting a slingshot to the head. I hate that stupid song.

  • It's a mockingbird, he wouldn't be singing if it wasn't for the street light

  • It's a Mockingbird! LoL. They sit high in a tree or pole, etc. and go thru their entire repertoire. He does a spot on crow, and car alarm... Ha.

  • ok firstly:. why do train drivers NEED to make those noises? probably they get a laugh out of it.

    i am from australia and it is 3am in Delaware, and as i type i hear this bird outside my window.

    it cannot be natural. i asume they do it because they think the street lights are the rising sun. so naturally, i, am wide awake thinking up situations of me going outside and breaking all the street lights. since actually catching the bird and strangeling it is a bit harder to accomplish.

    peace

  • That cracks me up.... I'm sorry (laughing so hard).... those mockingbirds do NOT shut up. And the train is the final straw. All you need now is peacocks screaming all night... that bright light might make the birds think it's daylight! The mockingbird is not giving up.... oh boy, good luck!

  • where is this? this sounds like a caged bird. maybe a lyre bird.

  • The same exact thing happened to me last night around 3:30. I live in Connecticut and this bird woke me up singing like crazy. It wasn't until I closed all the windows (it was hot!) that I could go back to sleep... eventually.

    Until my alarm clock did at 6 am what the mockingbird had done almost 3 hours earlier.

  • I have the exact same bird songs that keep me awake at night tooo. what the heck? cute, but I cannot sleep!

  • I have the exact same bird songs that keep me awake at night tooo. what the heck? cute, but I cannot sleep!

  • LOL that sounds like that weird bird from australia making all kinds of noises

  • the bird wouldn't bother me as much as the train would. I have a whip poor will outside my house and his scream is louder and he goes on forever. at least i can go to sleep now listening to him...lol

  • Oh, that's a mockingbird! At least I think. The ones around my house stay up at night too sometimes.

  • "What the hell kind of devil bird chirps at night?"

    --Failure to Launch

  • That's EXACTLY what I hear every night right outside my window! People say it could be a mockingbird. So far, I haven't heard any other guesses.

  • OMG this is the same freaking sound keeping me up at 3:14 AM.....I'm so glad you captured this on video because my friends think I'm making it up. At first I thought maybe these were bats but then I don't know.

  • That's funny. You can hear that mockingbird freaking out when the car comes by at 2:36, then aggravated for about twenty seconds, then it settles down into, yes, I'm quite the fellow, I'm cool.

    We have one of those in our back yard in the locust tree out in the country. It gives us hell if we go out on the back porch to smoke, and let's us know we've woken him/her up. It's so funnyl

  • That's only one bird, the common robin, making all those sounds of mating invitation. They're not nocturnal, that one must really have needed to get laid!

  • lol At some points it sounds like a car alarm.

  • i would love to hear that at night.  i sometimes play bird recordings to fall asleep. the train would have to go, though.

  • Wow- It sings it's song like my car alarm. "mocking"bird.. The video stopped a long time ago but I'm still hearing it's call.

  • Often, this sounds like Plano, TX. I Live near Highway US75 and George Bush Tollway and I hear this by my living room window.

  • This is a Northern Mockingbird. Many people have problems with them singing at night. They are very territorial and sing around the clock. Especially when the moon is out. Urban light is a problem that causes these birds to move near people. There are ways to stop them singing or scaring them away. But don't kill them, for... It's not their fault that we came and took the whole world. It's also illegal to use lethal action. Google "northern mockingbird singing at night"

  • I gotta thank you man, Tonight I heard weird sounds coming from the back yard area (Its 1:36 am) and It freaked me out at the sounds, but actually most of the sounds were the same ones in this video, now I know their birds, thank you for putting this up.

  • How cute. I find them relaxing..

  • Not only mocking birds mock...their not even the best at doing so.

    It would suck to be so used to it you just go stand outside for 4:00 minutes and film the damn thing.

  • I actually sleep better listening to cute little birdies chirping into my ear. :)

  • I'd get used to the bird after awhile, and eventually the train...but it's the gun shots and the sirens that most disturb!!

  • Nice sounding bird calls. He never did miss a beat! You might need some earplugs!

  • The birds never bother my sleep... it's the trains that drive past my house at 1am. I live 1/2 mile from the tracks. At lease after the train is gone, it's quiet again.

    Good luck with those birds.

  • Yeah, I live a 1/2 mile from the trains, also, as you've heard in the video.

    I feel sorry for the people who live right next to the train tracks though.

  • I use to live two blocks away from train tracks, some nights it would put me to sleep.

  • He's the, will someone shot a 1000 paintballs into the tree I'm in and see if they can shut me up bird.

    LOL.

    I hear your pain Lou.

  • Damn your comment was pretty complex, man.

  • So true. Those sleepless nights leave you wide awake thinking up complex comments.

    LOL

    Thanks for your comment on my comment.

    Take care and be safe now.

    Don...

  • Peace!

  • If that's a Mocking Bird, fear not. I recognize one of its calls because I have the same Noise starting at 4 am every stinking day. Chin up, you'll get use to it, now go back to bed and stop scaring the neighbors with the camera.

  • LOL.

  • ha! it's a lonely male mockingbird. he's singing for a mate. it won't last too long- he should find one soon and also the breeding season will be over so even if he doesn't find a mate, he'll stop trying. :)

  • Holy crap. It's like they're switching up the tune just to piss you off. I get it. They're TECHNO birds, and all they needs is a drumline before everyone shows up for the rave!

  • Shoot a gun off in his general direction, he'll leave or you'll get arrested, either way you can get a decent nights sleep. If you don't mind sleeping with robbers and rapists in a holding cell, but they'll probably be quieter than that stupid bird.

  • That was a mean, but pretty funny comment...

  • Thanks, it was certainly meant to be funny, LOL

    Not mean :\

  • thats a high note

  • Ah I was expecting a owl to be the cuprite. Hope you can get some sleep. Peace. Gregg

  • No, it's definitely not an owl...

  • i also have a "mocking bird" thats up all night in my front yard. the night lights keep it awake. a pellet rifle will solve your problem or some ear plugs:)

  • I bet you cant sleep, maybe if you play music by the tree it wont sleep during the day, give it a taste of its own medicine lol.:)

  • Great idea...

  • Wow that's like an alarm clock in itself. . it has multi ring tones. .haha No wonder you can't sleep . .LOL

    Have no idea what bird though . . obviously i'm on the other side of the world. If i ever visit there i'll make sure i got plenty of sleep over here. .lol

  • Sounds like you might have a mockingbird. They're notorious for staying up all night, showing off a repertoire of calls, and most of all, not knowing when to STFU! One summer there was one living outside our bedroom window. My sympathies.

  • yup. it is a mockingbird. they repeat one call a few times before moving on to the next. it's a lonely male. only males w/o a mate call at night. and fyi: it's illegal to remove, harass, kill or harm a mockingbird. unfortunately, the bird police aren't very strict in handing out tickets to harassing birds either. :O

  • Oh! There are birds at NJ that sound like a train!!! Interesting!! :). The truck bird was fun too!!

  • Billy,

    You are too funny.

    Yes, we have birds, and yes we have trains.

    I am happy that Lou lives closer to the tracks..

  • Haha! I know... I used to catch some of those trains :)

  • I think that's the ghost of Big Bird. Said to walk the streets at night looking for Sesame Street...So sad. He thought it was real ....

  • LOL! We used to have those same birds a few years ago...I don't know what they are either, but don't you just love the car-alarm sound effects?! They literally drove me CRAZY:o)

    Good Luck on this!

  • Oh my gosh, Lou! I have never heard of anything like that before! We have birds that are loud but only at the crack of dawn. But 2am?! LOL That's awful! It almost sounds like a car alarm. hahaha It has a lot of different sounds and tones in its call. Sounds beautiful, but not while you're trying to sleep, I agree. lol Wish I could help you out!

  • Yeah, it does sound like a car alarm.

    He must of been hanging out in the city before flying out here. I was just telling Amy above that it's probably a Mocking bird, which likes to copy sounds of other birds, and in this case, car alarms.

  • @GrandeMochaLate I believe its a mockingbird, they are brownish gray and go crazy with sound

  • That is the mating call of

    a rare bird considered extinct

    for seventy years. You have made

    the ornithological find of the

    century. You are a lucky man!

  • LOL.

    I'm so LUCKY!!!

  • o wow eh!! that sounds soo pretty but i can def say i wouldnt want to try to sleep to it!!

    i've never heard a bird sing so many different little tunes before.

  • Hi Amy! After reading through these comments, it appears to be a mocking bird. A mocking bird mimics the calls of other birds.

    I'll have to do a little more research on this.

  • O cool!! i really loved the sounds it made!! i usually dont care much for the repitition of em all, but this one was nice!! lol till the novelty wears off hehe ;P

  • I think it's a nightingale...

  • Thanks Florence.

    Once again, you forgot to say First.

    Please don't make a habit out of forgetting to say First. I'll let you slide this time.

  • Oh, yeah:

    FIRST...
