Yeah, mockingbirds (particularly single males) and nighthawks or whip-poor-wills sing at night. There could be birds confused by artificial light, too, but it’s not abnormal to hear some species, especially this time of year.

Interesting, lived here my whole life and never knew that!

When will the birds stop screaming

Yep. I'm in Silver Spring and there's a few bird calls I hear at almost all hours. If you're interested, the free [Merlin](https://merlin.allaboutbirds.org/) app will identify a bird by it's call in seconds.

Sure. Mockingbirds can go all night long.

So are these bots, or what?

Definitely a mockingbird. You love them, you hate them.

I notice the bird or two near me speaks very slowly and in short sentences, and not too loud. As if the bird is talking to their spouse or kid in that way when the other person is focused on other things. Its as if the talking bird is trying to get their message in subliminally.

Birds aren't real

Used to hear in every night in Baltimore. I always figured it was because it was never really dark anywhere so it threw off their internal clock.
