Hi birders, 

 

Apparently birds commonly fly into metal roofs at night as they look similar
to a small body of water to some birds. In the desert it is relatively
common to have ducks, grebes and other water birds fly into metal roofs
especially on moonlit nights. Maybe these petrels like to roost on water??

 

Cheers
