I don't even know what it is. But if it's some kind of a bird, then I
understand you perfectly. This summer when I was on a vacation, we had a
flock of some sea birds (I think they're called Seagulls in English)
that woke us up every morning (just at the sunrise), and there was
nothing we could do about it...
