Birds would naturally start chirping at dawn but they have adapted to the towns. The traffic is too noisy for the birds to communicate so the birds make use of the street lighting and chirp early morning before the traffic. One they find a mate and nest; they should shut up.Originally posted by OrangeHopper View Post
Six minutes and the alarm goes off and 1 hour from now I will be on the road.
3 o'clock this afternoon I will wish I hadn't been woken up by those birds. 2 o'clock start for heaven's sake.

Half the time they are shouting 'Get orf moi laaand'
or 'Anyone up for a session of rumpy pumpy'
'Here comes that bloody cat again'
'Come and have a go if you think you're hard enough'
'Has anyone seen our joey?'
