Greetings birdforum.net
I'm hoping for some help identifying a bird that has been keeping me up at night. I live in a pretty urban area of San Diego, North Park. Not downtown, but in a neighborhood that has businesses, isn't really the subburbs. A bird seems to have taken up residence in my back yard, and has been a real pain in the neck. It starts making noise most nights, anywhere between 12 midnight and 3 am. It's an incredibly loud, varied pattern of calls, that usually goes on for twenty minutes or so.
I've gotten a look at what I believe to be the culprit once or twice. It was blue, maybe around the size of a pigeon. Very prominent tail feather, sort of trapezoidal. There appears only to be one of them. It lives in a tall tree or the bamboo in my backyard.
I'm wondering if anyone has any advice as to A) what the bird might be and B) how to kindly suggest that it sets up shop elsewhere.
Thanks in advance.
