Assuming V=L, every uncountable transitive model of ZFC contains all ambient countable ordinals and witnesses their countability internally. Its ordinal height is at least ω1​, and absoluteness of constructible levels puts Lω1​​ inside it. Every countability witness for a countable ordinal can be chosen in Lω1​​ by hereditarily countable constructible sets appear below omega-one.
