Birds

[Steve]

Why can I suddenly hear birdsong at 1am?

I didn't think birds sang at night.

No I could definitely hear a few birds tweeting last night. and the ngiht before. not before that though. Strange eh?

Usually due to street lamps (sometimes very clear night and bright moon). The level of light makes birds think dawn is coming so they make theatening calls to keep away intruders.

Maybe the night club was still open

last night was a full moon and clear, so that's probably why...

Has been a known method of communication twixt thieving gits.. away from leafy avenues tho'.

birds are inherently stupid, so any increase in light or temperature will set of a breeding/nesting frenzy. probably.

i heard birdsong last night up to about 10 o'clock. i also heard an owl which is the first time ive heard one for a very long time.

We have heard birdsong all night ever since next door had their tree cut down hence the increase in light from streetlamps,moon etc. The birds think dawn is approaching all night. Also lots of cats out at night around here so birds may be sending out warnings to other birds.
