This sounds so familiar! For years now, in the spring, a mockingbird will sit in the crepe myrtle about 5 ft. in front of our bedroom window and sing his heart out! He does this between 2am-4am and wakes us every time. It lasts 1-2 weeks once he starts. His repertoire lasts anywhere from 15-20 minutes, and to be honest, it's fascinating to hear all the different bird songs he's "mocking". Sometimes he'll stop and repeat an hour later. He'll do this for a week or two, and I miss it when he stops, but often throughout the rest of the year we'll hear the songs throughout the neighborhood.
