Jesse Ellis said "Robins are one of the first diurnal singers (song, not call), 
and given that they sing predawn, as light is just appearing, they could be 
responding a little to street light."

I have a Robin outside my window that starts singing a few minutes after 
3:00AM. Is that unusually early? (I live in urban Milwaukee, near Lake 
Michigan).
