Short of killing it, I don't know how to discourage this guy anymore. I've pulled the nest down three times this week and even hit the bird twice with rocks. This guy will not give up and I don't want his nest there. I'm about a day away from setting a glue trap on his perch. He's there every time I come out to check and his nest is restarted a few hours after I pull it all down with a broom. I can't shoot him in this neighborhood. The smallest caliber I have is a .22 and that'd still be a crime in such a residential place. A BB gun might work. I don't think anything short of killing him is gonna work, which I'd like to avoid. But I'd much rather avoid the damage this guy is inflicting on my roof tiles and flashing. What to do?
