In my happy place

So it is 22.20, I have my window open slightly and I can hear birdsong.

I was woken up at 4.30 by birds and seagulls. So when do they go to bed?

Depends on the bird. Most of them nap throughout the day though. Also stuff like street lights and noises tend to keep them up.

Swifts feed, drink, mate and sleep on the wing, and only land to breed. So a young Swift will spend its first two or three years in constant flight before it nests

Seagulls make a lot more noise. A lot.

Yes they do. Don't be a pedant.

Everyone calls them seagulls.

Noisy flappy things.

We're almost at the shortest daylight day of the year. Animals will largely be active or sleep, driven by this.

Birds will sleep in somewhat protected places, many having young at the moment. Many find food near to people, so won't be far away.

We're harming them and other animals by having outside lighting, which stops their natural rest. Some homes are very disruptive to wildlife, in this and other ways.

I had a very noisy chaffinch a couple of years ago - it was nonstop loud noise. But much happier that they were around and happy, than not

All of the above, plus I also think it depends on the individual bird's personality. One of my little guys won't tuck his head under until I've switched the TV off at night, whereas the other one would literally sleep through a tornado.
