This site explains why the birds sing at night, and what to do about it.



Their solution is: "In the evening, when birds are going to their nighttime roosts, create enough disturbance to discourage the bird from using that site. Close windows and turn on air conditioner and/or radio to drown out bird sound."



I would suggest waiting until nesting season is over before you try to discourage birds from their regular roosting area, so they don't abandon their nests. Also, in the US, it is illegal to harrass native migratory birds, so you want to be careful about that one. I would go with closing the window and putting on the AC.
Reply:somewhere I read that birds are singing because of noise.

I have a killdeer that I hear; but I think that it's because their nesting area is on the ground and they are warding off predators.
Reply:Northern Mockingbirds sing throughout the night. Male Rose-breasted grosbeaks Sing on their nest ALL night long and ALL day long.
