I live in portland oregon and this is my first post here... hello to all.
I hear a bird in the early morning hours spring through fall. They tend to be solitary and have a song that comes in a pattern of threes. They seem to sing only at night, just after sunset and again just before sunrise, however last night they started up at about 3 am. Can anyone tell me what breed of bird it is that I hear at night and why it is that they prefer the dark. When I think of nocturnal birds, I tend to think of owls alone. It has a beautiful call.
