    I fucking love it. I’ll never understand people who hate birdsong, no matter what time. Are your windows really that thin? Relax and enjoy something nature provides for free at no cost to you whatsoever.

      It’s not that my windows are that thin, but rather that I’d like to keep them open a crack for oxygen and cooling in the summer…

      In a previous house, the sound insulation wasn’t great due to the necessity of a window AC unit. Outside of my window apparently lived a bird who had learned to imitate my alarm and had no regard for timing.

      I agree that birdsong can be quite lovely. I do not agree that it is universally so.

      People who feel differently about things than you: what a concept.

      It’s kind of difficult to relax and enjoy something when it is a seagull going IIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIII for 10min straight without a single pause, just outside your bedroom window, at 5am.

    I go to work at 5AM. Birds are how I know I’m on time and the party’s started.
