How to get birds to go away...?
I just moved into the city and I have lots of well established trees in my yard, which is great. However, there are many birds living in these trees and starting at about 4:00 in the morning, they are keeping me from getting some much needed sleep. Is there a way to get them to move on that is safe to use in the city (ie no shotgun ideas here)? If they sounded nice and peaceful that would be fine, but they sound like a bad electronic facsimile of a bird singing. It is quite awful. Any suggestions for me?

I live on the third floor of an apartment building. I don't have space in the front that is protected from the other tenents and my back porch is 90% shade (there is a gordeous tree that keeps it cool). I was wondering what types of plants do well in the shade and that can be kept in pots since I am on the third floor. Also, I will probably be moving at the end of the summer and want to take them with me, so something that travels well.

12 AnswersHoroscopes1 decade agoHow do I write these in standard MLA format?
I am putting together a paper for my college Shakespeare class and my MLA handbook is in a box someplace. I can't find how to do these for sure online. Help???
1) I have a text book where I quote both the author and reprint quotes from Freud. How do I site this? Do I site them as two seperate items? Also, in the body of my paper do I use both (") and (') when I quote a quote?
2) I am quoteing from Taming of the Shrew that is anthologized in my complete works. How do you quote an anthology?
3) When I am quoting Shakespeare in the body of my paper, don't I do it like this (I.i.47-52) as in (act.scene.lines)?
If anyone just has a website that has these handy-dandy rules on it that would be great too.
Thanks...
