What time does the bird song begin where you are?

Just before dawn.......nothing better than being woken by the beautiful chorus.
During our spring and summer......don't hear many in the fall.....but.....year round there's the chickadees, nuthatches, waxwings.
 
One of the nearby farmers has lots of chickens, and the roosters start "singing" at the first sign of daylight. Even though the farm is well over a mile away, on a quiet morning, they can be clearly heard.
 
I understand, Bretrick. In our little corner of the earth we only rarely hear the "sounds of civilization" while the sounds of nature are our constant background music. Birds, frogs, insects, wee furry critters, the wind in the trees and meadow grass, rain, a small nearby waterfall . . . all make for a very pleasant soundtrack to our waking hours.

However I DO recall, in our former home, discovering that we had CROWS! Attractive, intelligent birds, but when we slept with the windows open they would congregate outside just before sunrise and start up their morning chant (Aarrrgh!).

We quickly learned to sleep with the windows closed. :ROFLMAO:

Crows are so so noisy. Not a pleasant noise either.
When they congregate outside my place early in the morning, I get up and go outside and shoo them away.
 
Where i am there are Owls at night, most other birds daybreak which is a bit slower here in the mountains because the sky gets lighter quite a while before sun actually clears the mountains. What kind of morning song varies with time of year as we get migratory birds in spring and fall. Including Geese that land on a neighbors pond. Crows converse all year round. When the Red Winged Blackbirds are coming thru they sort of chitter at me till i feed them then they sing.

You might want to be careful about that. Crows remember human faces and behavior and have been known to pass info to each other about who's friend, who's foe and carry grudges. They've also been known to bring gifts to those who have been kind to them.
