The vocalization was most likely nearby House Sparrows. They seem to like
filling stations.

They look like decoys people use to scare away other birds like pigeons.

I found these two birds atop an Exxon sign at the intersection of US 17/50
and US 522 near Winchester, VA, yesterday. I heard them at first making a
loud cheerp cheerp noise, then later on a whistling Whieeeoouuuu sound. I
wonder what they were. They seem like hawks but they were too high for me to
recognize.
