This amazing song bird likes to repeat a call 2 or 3 times before going to the next one. Santa Barbara, CA.

  • True story, woke up from a deep sleep last night around 1:30am to these bird calls... I legit got up, found the tree and shook it a little to startle the bird. 1 point for me, but I'm sure I'll lose several points & hours of sleep later this week to the N Mockingbird. D'oh!

    Luckily they don't seem to hand around our house at night!

  • @Reacher81 I had one that would chirp loud as all heck at 3am until 3pm. Id leave for school dead tired because I couldn't sleep anymore, walk back home and it would still be chirping away. I'd shine a flashlight in the tree and it would stop but as soon as that flashlight went out it went right back to chirping.

  • Sounds very like a song thrush

    

  • @Reacher81 Its against the law to harm or harras mocking birds... While I fully understand the urge, please dont do that again.

  • It's 1:13 AM here on the East Coast and this mockingbird nearby will not quit! I don't mind, though. To be honest, I love it! =) I'm playing bits of this video and pausing every now and then just to mess with him. I think my human neighbors might be getting a little annoyed with me, however.

  • what the hell are these birds doing staying up so goddamn late
