Are u somewhere that is cold right now? If so I had a 96 camaro that did the same thing but only in the winter I think what happens is the weather stripping gets cold under the hatch and when u hit little bumps it makes a squeak noise I would just try some like armorall or leather care on the rubber and see if that helps also spray down the hatch shocks with some wd-40 and rub it on the bars just my .02 and dont forget about the tight rubber stripping by the glass just make sure u get every rubber weather strip in the back

probably a bird, just get it with the hose <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

A good lubing should cure any sort of chirping though..
