Alrighty now.......You can start laughing anytime cuz I have a question that will probably make most of the bird experts here cringe but hey....the only dumb question is the one unasked.....KK here goes.....I have lived in Tempe, Arizona in the same house just about my whole life.....(42 years) and since I was just a little kid have heard the same bird song at night during the spring and summer months. I haven't seen the bird in question just heard its song. My mom had told me years ago that its called a Nightengale(?)
My boyfriend and I have heard this same bird song late at night at his house and he insists that I am crazy that it is not a bird but has to be someone playing a joke or a car alarm or some such other nonsense. He is gonna make me nuts until I can prove to him that it IS a bird and that I am not making it up somehow.
So my next to impossible question is....What kind of bird would this be? I can only say that it seems to be nocturnal and has a very sweet song clear and beautiful and sings almost till dawn. I am sorry to have so little for you all to go on ~smiles sheepishly~
