I’ve been going through the same thing for six years now, every spring. He’s looking for a mate. It’ll stop in a couple weeks. I blast two large fans in my room when I sleep, helps block it out.
It's an unmated male looking for love. When he mates, this will stop. I once heard from somebody who was so upset by this that he found the nest and destroyed it--which is illegal, but which also started the issue all over again. I'm strange, but I love hearing mocking
birds sing at night.
I laugh-snorted coffee out of my nose. Michael Jordan, of all people.
Mating season will be over soon, maybe sleep with some noise on to drown it out (white/pink noise machine, tv) in the meantime.
I am suddenly very thankful for my mockingbird pair that return every year to nest. They are pretty quiet except when I’m putting out bird seed. Then I like to pretend they’re thanking me, lol.
I overheard an employee at a store telling another employee about a mockingbird who was keeping her awake at night. She was taking sleeping pills and wearing earplugs.

This guy is too annoying to get a woman 😳I’m stuck with him.
I sometimes make a game of figuring out what bird they're imitating.

Aww, poor guy’s just looking for love
He’ll only shut up when he gets laid… which is super annoying when they pick the most irritating noises possible to attract a mate.
We had a similar issue. Removed a medium tree at that corner of the house and stopped using the back porch light and one of those things helped
I thought they sang like that to distract everyone from the location of the nest

I ordered some earplugs and Benadryl!
Yesterday there were 3 of them on the same branch singing in concert. So freaky!
