| This reminds me of when I lived in San Francisco. Sometimes the parrots would congregate in the back and damn were they noisy. Leaning my head out the window to yell at them didn’t do a thing. I learned to have earplugs next to my bed. |

| Go outside and sing with it. |

Both the call and behavior sound like a Northern Mockingbird. There, now you’ve been introduced. You’re friends!

Maybe try recording its call and playing it back, according to article below. Or try playing recordings of owls, I think mockingbirds are small enough to be threatened by owls.

| Honestly the air horn really works. They don’t come back after a few toots. |
The owl recording didn't work either. I figured out it's perched at a neighbors. But loud! Maybe he couldn't hear it. |
| He found his mate at 2:30am. Thank god! |

| I hear a bird/birds outside my living room window after midnight all the time. It sounds quite lovely in the quiet summer night. Fortunately he doesn't hang around my bedroom window in the back. |
I thought they like shit |
Leave the bird alone. It has a right to sing. If your tender ears can't take this, close your window. Your kids make more annoying noise than the bird. |
| NP here. I came back to this thread for the sole purpose of trolling by asking if you'd rather have those cicadas or a miriachi band. But this thread is way better. |

| Consider yourself fortunate that it is not a raven making all the noise! I volunteer at a bird sanctuary where we have a male raven in captivity. He will scream, croak, and squawk for five hours straight during mating season (early March-early June). There is a wild female in the woods nearby and she does the same thing. You can hear them from over 100 feet away. |
