I can hear birds singing. It's almost 2.00AM, what birds sing in the middle of the night?

Not owls, more of a tweetle sound.

Where are u? Sounds lovely

I live in a city and all I can hear is the motorway 😭

I’m on South Coast and just noticed it when I woke up. Seems really odd given it doesn’t get light before 8am 🤷🏻‍♀️

I'm lying awake listening to birdsong, too. Sounds like a robin.

The only thing I can think of is that the ISS will be in sight, but not until gone 6am.

It's sort of twi twi twi, space, twi twi twi twi

@Chamomile

Well spotted (sounded) apparently it is not uncommon for robins

Maybe the world is ending. Earth thrown off its axis or something.

Well the world seems to still be here, maybe it's going to end later today.

Due to my penchant for v late night fags in the garden, I can confirm the birds have been singing in the middle of the night for a few weeks now
