That one is an easier problem to solve, you find a way of dampening the sound so they fly somewhere else to make the sound.

Years ago I cut out a thin sheet of rubber to fit the top of my chimney, glued it on there and never had them come back. A month later or so I went back up on the roof and cut the rubber off.

Obviously make sure you aren’t blocking any vent portion of the chimney if you go this route.
