The fact that you only here it once per evening, combined with the fact that it is always at 7 o'clock, leads me to believe you are really dealing with something like this --
Singing Bird Clock sings its heart out, every hour on the hour. 12 favorite bird songs starting with the House Finch, American Robin, Northern Mockingbird, Blue Jay, House Wren, Tufted Titmouse, Northern Oriole, Mourning Dove, Black-capped chickadee, Northern Cardinal, White-throated Sparrow and the White-brested Nuthatch.
In a fit of temporary insanity, I got one as an impulse purchase when I was buying a bird feeder. Although it has a light sensor on it to keep it from chirping every hour through the night, it still got obnoxious. But it stil kept good time, and not being one to throw out a perfectly good clock, I took the batteries out of the the little song generator. Chalk these up as something that sounds like a good idea in theory, but that in practice leaves something to be desired.
But I think they would make excellent presents.
