Ready to Pluck some Tailfeathers
Every morning this week, I have been awaked by the sound of a bird singing. It's not on my iPhone and it's not on my alarm clock. It is a real bird, who, every morning at 6:00, perches himself (herself?) somewhere on my front porch and commences to sing a little three-note diddy - at maximum volume - repetitively. It wakes me up, wakes my husband up, and more importantly, wakes our 2 year old up - and this is one week that we have been sleeping in - or at least trying to. This bird is walking on the proverbial thin ice.
Watch it, birdie! You woke up the wrong mama!

Mocking bird or Cat Bird? Andy has threatened to kill both species in the past. The only one's I have a problem with are mocking birds that pick up the car alarm call. The rest I can sleep through.
The only solution I've heard of is to get a fake owl and put it outside your house near where the birds typically hang out.
C'mon now...I know you have a gun... I swear, I won't tell anyone. :)
Joanna, I'm thinking Mockingbird since they usually tend to nest in the biggest tree in our front yard. I thought about an owl, too, maybe I'll see if I can find one this weekend.
Ty'sMommy - ha! It's the Texas state bird - the stupid thing is "protected". I need a cat.
