What is this noise?

It’s probably a barn owl. Edit: If it sounds like a demon or something dying.
See video

@rangerr – No… that’s too raspy. It honestly does sound like a yowling, dying animal.

@troubleinharlem Hrm.. I don’t know if barn owls even live in Spain.. Is there a way you can record it?

@rangerr – I’ve been listening to random youtube videos of birds that sound like cats, and it sounds kind of like this – a mockingbird.

Could it be a type of heron? There are some I’ve heard that sound like dying animals and/or women screaming.

@gemiwing – I don’t know if there are herons here…
@rangerr & @gemiwing – I’ll film the noise tomorrow and upload it.

Maybe Cicadas?

Cicadas hatch in July…but I don’t know about in Spain.

They make quite a racket, screaming all night.

?

Peacocks! :-/

@Scooby

Hey…maybe!

I have a Peacock in my area and it is soooo loud, and yeas..they shreik like something being murdered. lol

Peacocks yell ‘help’ not meow. A mockingbird could indeed be mimicking a cat, and causing the sound.

Your description could be a peacock. Or Neil Young.

@filmfann

lolololol

removed my me.

@filmfann I’ll just go on living and pretend that you didn’t mean to insult Neil Young. You’d never do that…

@filmfann, @MissA, @Coloma, @Keysha, @rangerr, @gemiwing, @Scooby – Okay, so I asked around and apparently it was a peacock. xD But thanks for helping me out a bit!
