    Actually, since the bird is getting some kind of sustenance from the 
shingles, I'd suspect you have bugs of some kind there...maybe you need 
an exterminator!
you could try feeding him (peanuts, whatever) but I suspect that 
wouldn't deter him.......but trust me, he's finding something there or 
he would have quit after a few days.  Maybe you have termites!
