My Bobs "go off" all the time at night in the summer. I have concluded it is because of the "Common Poorwills" and or the "Night Jars", which are nocturnal wild birds, that call all night long. They have calls very similar to my Bob's calls, male and female alike, and the Bobs either feel they need to defend their territory, or they are calling them in for mates. 

 

So go outside just after dark and listen for any birds nearby that may have similar calls or ones that might "set" your birds off.
