Where I live in Manchester you never hear birds tweeting and singing at night, I do mean never in all my 35 years. For the last week though they have been at it from about midnight until 5am, it has gotten so bad now as to be distracting me from sleeping and that is how I know it is out of the ordinary because I am a light sleeper at the best of times and would have noticed it before.
Anyway, was down the pub earlier tonight for a beer and talking about it with a mate at the bar, suddenly a barmaid chips in and said the same thing has been disturbing her sleep for a few days, then the landlord piped up and said his wife had noticed it as well starting last weekend. Well we were having a good old chat about what it could be when before long half the pub (maybe a dozen people) had all confirmed that either they or someone in their own family had commented on the birds singing at night lately.
So now I am left wondering, is this some strange local phenomenon where birds that usually migrate to different areas have stopped in my local area instead of moving on.
Thoughts?
