The cold at night was making the framing beams to expand and contract causing an annoying rhythmic ticking noise.
Noisy magpies on roof.
A week ago i was proved right.
I have a heavy cedar shake roof and the moisture and mildew.
Very rarely i m woken by the birds the dawn chorus in the spring can be quite spectacular.
The roofing company used screws throughout the roof to help.
I assumed they must be looking for grubs seeing as they were losing so much moss to the ground.
I told hubby and he feigned interest and belief.
One day i was across the road playing with lacey and ma was along for the ride and the siren aka magpie went off.
After much consideration i decided it was probably the numerous magpies around my area.
Turns out the drywall wasn t secured properly to an exterior wall.
The magpies go into our guttering and pick up moss and leaves throwing them down onto the conservatory roof which makes quite a noise.
Many mornings and throughout the day i hear crows on my roof pecking and banging for some reason.
I came to realise that the noise was indeed coming from a magpie and i wasn t actually crazy.
Magpies don t make noises like police cars.
They seem to be having a good time.
Whether it s pigeons magpies sparrows or a different breed entirely birds can be a major nuisance when they decide to take up residence on your rooftop.
The we still had this ticking noise going on in our bedroom.
