Question

sun not up,cat ??

Answer 1

Mockingbirds often sing at night, especially when the moon is out.  It's claiming its territory.

Answer 2

This is normal behaviour.  Birds sing early in the morning and late in the evening because sound carries better at these times than it does mid-day.  It is mating season, so he will most likely be at it for quite some time.

Answer 3

Bet there is a light on somewhere.

Answer 4

birds sing at night also...a huge white oak tree is right beside my bedroom window and i hear birds singing a lot. It actually helps me go to sleep.Mockingbirds can make many many different sounds and will mock anything (hence how it got its name) i live in Tennessee and it is the state bird so there are LOTS here!

Answer 5

OMG!  There is a bird outside my window that sings everynight also!  It drives me insane...i feel like the girl on Failure to Launch!  Anyways, I guess it's normal....??
