How to get rid of noisy bird?

Question

Oh my gosh you should hear it! It makes many different sounds! Sorry but its sooo annoying! No matter what time of day it is its always there! Even middle of night like past 1am! I dont know what kind of bird it is, but i can describe it to be skinny, small i think its grayish black but cant seem to get a close view of the color. We do have fruit trees and so does neighbors, grass (now dry weeds) are all around, so i kno these attract them. Last time when i lived at my parents, I wished for this bird to "go away", I think it was a Robin, this bird died the next day =(. I would hate to think for same of this bird haha! Does a fake owl really work to scare them off? Or what alternatives are there that doesn't involve anything bad?

Answer 1

Trying an owl statue might work, but you wouldn't want the bird to abandon any babies it might have would you?

I'd just leave it be.  Close your window at night and/or turn on a fan.

I love song birds....

Answer 2

suzi is right, try an ear plug.

Answer 3

You know what works great?

Ear plugs

Fans and window air conditioners

White noise machines

Radios

All native wild birds are protected by law.  You cannot harm them for any reason.

Be thankful it's a bird, and not gunfire.

Answer 4

It's a mockingbird.  I had a similar situation where a mockingbird parked itself right outside my bedroom window at night and drove me bonkers.  Thankfully it only lasted a couple weeks and then it moved on.  It may have a nest so I wouldn't try to scare it away.  Give it a week or two and see if it stops.  They usually do.
