Please forgive me if I have asked for advice on this problem before. I have asked so many people that I have lost track.
I live in the south eastern part of the country, (North Carolina).
I live inside the city limits in a residential area. There are some trees but no large areas of woods or parks within a few blocks of my house. It is very unrural. I grew up in rural area so I expect a certain amount of wildlife in the country, but, not here. Well, my problem are birds...very loud birds. They start singing, sqwaking, chirpping, tweeting, you name it, as early as 4:30 a.m. Now that we are on daylight savings time it's around 5:30 a.m. It is still completely dark outside and these birds sound like it is in the middle of the day. I am awakened by them almost every morning. One kind will sing for about 10-15 minutes and then stop. Then another group will start. It continues for hours. It actually ocurrs during the day too, but, if I am home I just ignore it.
Any suggestions on how to stop it? I have lived in my house for about 7 years and this just started about 9 months ago. Could there be some idiot putting out bird seed at 4:30 in the morning and if he did, how would the birds see it?
I went to
www.birdbgone.com and saw many options, but, they are very expensive. The sonic noise device is over $300.00 and what if it doesn't work. I can't shoot the birds, it's illegal in the city and besides, they are too many and I can't see them in the dark.LOL. This is sooo wierd.
