There has been some type of bird, in the tree outside of our bedroom window, who has been making a racket every night once the sun goes down. It actually sounds a little like a duck, it's song is sort of like a quack.

Is anyone else hearing this type of bird at night? Does anyone have any idea what type of bird it could be? It's been keeping me awake at night or waking me up if I do happen to fall asleep.

I have all types of birds in my yard, they visit my feeders, bath in my birdbath and nest in my birdhouses, but I have never heard this bird outside at night before, this is the first year.
