What is the reason birds squawk at nights?

Dim light can have a profound effect. It is possible to extend the singing time into the night because even low light intensities can cause song in certain birds.



Also, why can't I hear the birds at night?

Birds sing at night, but they also have to be able to adapt their songs in order to be heard. birds can also sing at midnight if they get woken by thunder and fireworks. True nocturnal song can also be used to trigger diurnal birds singing at night.

This is why birds are still chirping at 2am.

In mid-December, we can hear birds singing in the trees near our house at night (2am). The primary purpose of singing is to attract and defend a territory. Robins are the only bird that can hold onto a territory all winter, so they sing even when other birds have stopped singing.

Why do birds chirp at 11pm?

Birds chirp at night. This is evidently a matter of territory. The light may make them believe it is daytime, and they might feel inclined to defend their territory to other birds.
