What bird makes this sound?

    Hi, there's a bird living in a big sycamore tree in the neighbours garden (Dublin City). It likes to start making a loud racket early each morning but not much during the day or evening. I can only describe it as a 'clacking' type of sound which is like banging a wooden spoon inside a saucepan, quite rhythmically... I haven't been able to catch a glimpse of it, it's well hidden in the tree.
    if it's going to keep waking me up at 6am each morning it would be nice to know what type of bird it is! Anyone got any ideas? Thanks!:)

    4kwp South East facing PV System. 5.3kwh Weco battery. South Dublin City.

    Clacking..........immediate thought was Magpie also, easy enough to identify large black and white bird very distinctive, just have to get out of bed and look :D
