Check with your Local Council, they set the Noise times for construction etc, although sometimes builders can get variances. I think you will find Sunday is nil, comes from our Christian forefathers. I think offhand its 7AM to 7PM

Sparrows chirp when they are alone in the hope of attracting other sparrows. In fact, you will find that once quite a few sparrows have landed at a food source, they quieten down. This is because a single sparrow is a lot more vulnerable than a sparrow in a flock. They chirp out an "I've found food" call, the other sparrows come in and the first sparrow, statistically speaking, is less likely to be eaten by a cat while it is stuffing its beak with food.

You are probably 35 thousand feet too far away to see anything.\n\nMind you, you would probably still hear them, they are all noise these days.

Birds fly south because it is instinct. I hope that answers your question.

This statement seems to agree with that:\n\n"Raptors may also permit small birds such as House Sparrows and kingbirds to build their tiny nests in the raptors' ample platforms or to be close neighbors. These small birds sound the alarm when an intruder approaches, but are not threatened by their predatory "hosts," which ordinarily do not hunt near their own nests."\n\nAs does this:\n\n"Woods where Cooper's hawks nest may remain heavily populated with songbirds, as these hawks hunt away from their nest area."

Danger: Chipmunks use a sharp repetitive chirp to alert others of danger. When startled, they'll often respond with a single chirp followed by a short burst of chatter (1–2 seconds).\n\nTerritory: They will do it as a warning to other chipmunks that they are in someone else's place.\n\nMating: The female will chirp to attract herself a mate.

I have some incredible weather phenomena going on.\nSee my dark spot in my picture? That is a huge cyclone-like storm that would make it very difficult for birds to fly in. Oh, and take note that the dark spot is about the size of your planet Earth. Now that's giving Katrina a whole new perspective.

the answer is probably that if it is less than 40 degrees F, crickets die/hibernate and dont chirp at all. above 40, the formula would work, giving a positive number of chirps.

I don't know.. it's weird though.  I lived in the midwest for years and we always had tornado warnings starting in the evening.  The Wautoma, Wisconsin tornado was in the evening.  Maybe it has something to do with the cooling air on land.

They are actually increasing their range of vision by tilting their eyes toward the ground. Birds supposedly are extrasensory feelers, so they probably "sense" worms.

Seriously, call the cops. It's inconsiderate for them to be having parties on a TUESDAY so late and loud. File noise complaint with your leasing office, or perhaps you can go over and talk to them. State that if they don't keep the music down, you will be forced to call the cops. I live in a townhome too so I know that the noise level echos.

They sound like Grackels.  I think they are grackels by your comment that their coloring changes (probably with the light).  Grackels have that characteristic.\n\nStarlings do not have bluish coloring and are typically brown with some light brown coloring as well (at least the breed I have in my yard).  :o)\n\nYou can see a photo of a grackel here:  http://www.uwrf.edu/~W1051956/grackel1.jpg\n\nAnother very good photo of a common Grackel showing a blueish tint to his head is here:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Grackle\n\nYou can see a photo of a Starling here:  http://www.acclaimimages.com/_gallery/_pages/0025-0310-3016-4303.html\n\nUnfortunately many people look at both these birds as pests.\n\nHope this helps. Happy Birding!!
