Detailed explanation-1: -Late April through to early June is the best period, when most species are singing well.
Detailed explanation-2: -Why do birds sing so early? Early mornings are too dark to search for food, and too dark to be spotted by predators. That makes it the perfect time to sing. As there is less background noise and the air is so still, sound carries around 20 times further than it would later in the day.
Detailed explanation-3: -This global event began right here in 1987 when wildlife enthusiast and local broadcaster Chris Baines, decided to celebrate his birthday by inviting friends and family to listen to wildlife wake up with him at Moseley Bog.
Detailed explanation-4: -What is the best time to hear the dawn chorus? Peaking around late May and June, the dawn chorus starts as early as March and carries on until August, especially on a hot year. The dawn chorus starts some 30-minutes to an hour before sunrise, which may be as early as 4am or so in late spring.
