Northern Mockingbird Singing - YouTube
OP has not yet stated if mockingbird or not, but if so, the white noise machine may work (as noted by others.)

Another possible solution may be found at the link below.

Listen to the Mockingbird's Song

Wake up and enjoy their joyful noise! If God’s blessings are annoying to you, change!

Yep, same problem? Mockingbird has desided my CRV wall and Palm trees are his nesting territory. So, he sings about 14 different songs. I also see him and intruder battling on my fence in his proclaimed territory? He is loud right out side my bed room windows

You can try hanging cd or dvd discs from strings in the tree. The movement and light reflections will scare the birds away.

We get woken up every morning about 6:30 by a very loud cardinal. I just consider him an "urban rooster". Complaining about the birds singing is like complaining about rain, or leaves falling, or the Florida heat. What's the point? Maybe you could try going to bed earlier?

Yep.



We had a pair of owls that used to sound like they were inside our bedroom...and became annoying after a while.

The last couple of years though, they haven't come back...and I miss them now.

I know of a nice high rise in the middle of the asphalt jungle where the only animals that live there are your neighbors. Oops, they make a lot of noise also. Sorry, I guess you're stuck with the birds.

Thank you all for your comments and suggestions. I much prefer the noisy birds to noisy neighbors...

If you don't want a noise machine, I think the ice water solution (so to speak) sounds safe and might work. Of course, you'd have to get out of bed...

If the birds are mating that's a problem (Noisey) if the humans were mating they wouldn't hear the birds. Either way, I can't hear any animules except these damn frogs.
