Default "Chirping" from right front wheel

1996 Accord EX
After getting my starter/distributor issues sorted out yesterday, I took it for a test drive. Now there is a high-pitched chirping which sounds like it's coming from the right front wheel. it sounds like a half dozen little birds chirping. It gets worse when I turn left, disappears when turning right. I thought about the bearings, but they usually had a lower pitched grumbling sound in previous cars when they went bad... Thanks for any help!

Brakes or CV axles are possible. Inspect cv axle boots for damage. Pull wheel and inspect brake pads for thickness and alignment.

good luck
