Have you ever been outside after dark and heard screeching? I heard some eerie screeching tonight, so I "videotaped" it, although there is no video, just the sounds. And you have to turn your speakers up full to hear it. What on earth is it? :ashamed::confused2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HA0VkzeCyB0

Sounds like some sort of feline to me. Maybe a feral cat defending its turf.

Definitely a fox.

I hear them a lot here, and have seen them up close "barking" exactly like that.

Lots of ideas! I'm leaning toward fox, I saw one running along the edge of the river a few days ago. :thumbsup:

I've seen a fox barking/howling like that years ago. From a distance it didn't look well - coat was patchy and not dull. I figured at the time there was something wrong with it. I know in the spring when they're looking for a mate their bark will sound exactly like a crow cawing. You will hear it in the middle of the night and you think, 'what the heck is a crow doing out in the dark'.

Sounds like a fox to me as well. Youtube has some comparisons. I've heard some really bizarre screeches coming from owls around my place.
