Early Morning Bird Chatter

Why do birds feel the need to chat so much and so loudly in the mornings?

It's almost as if they feel the need to make up for the almost complete lack of chatting during the night hours. Yes, they even continue to chat at night! Just not so much or as loudly as they do the rest of the time.

Maybe it's because they have so many hours of gossip to catch up on and share.

"I say, did you hear about Miss Magpie?"
"No. What happened with Miss Magpie?"
"It's quite the scandal, you know."
"I never!"
"No!"

That could well be the reason why the chat so much more at dawn than any other time of the day.

Then there's also the fact that the could be just be gathering information about the latest turf wars and who's involved.

"The magpies and crows are going to be going at it at lunch today in the park!"

That way anyone who wants to go and watch or join in (if they wish) or simply just avoid the whole area where the fight is going to happen.

Of course, they could always just be sharing information in preperation for their final big attack on humanity.

But that's best not thought about.
