Default Chirp chirp sound!

My 2001 LS430 is making a chirp chirp sound from under the hood area. I don't know were the exact location the sound is coming from, im car ignorant when it comes to problems . This happened after my 50,000 mile service, and also 3 times i have started my car and got hi revs from the engine. The car runs great even though these things are happening. Could it be my lack of driving the car in the last month. No more than 200 -300 miles total in over a month. Is this a engine lubrication problem? The sound lessens the more i drive it. Still there but quieter chirping. GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME.
