strange noise in the night

this isnt really a criptid ( i think xD) but didnt knwo where else to put it.

yesterday around 1.30a.m i heard a weird noise doming from my garden i live in belgium (western europe for thosee who dont know) and it was like a high pitch schrieking (dont know if its spelled this way)

you guys have any idea what it could've been?

Who really knows. Could've been an animal, or maybe even a person. Best thing to do, is ignore it, unless it happens again.

Cat fight?

I hear this quite often at night, sounds horrible

Agree.
It could have been anything, I was walking my dog the other night when I heard a slow and steady breathing coming from behind some trees. It was quite heavy sounding. I ignored it, but I also made my way back home after my mind started playing the "you're being watched" trick on me.

Point is, you never know so pass it off as an anomaly (sp?)

ok thx
it might have been a cat fight i guess there are a lot of cats running around here
also i was thinking of a beech marten or a ferret as the first one sometimes kills chiken at my grandma's place and a ferret has recently attacked my guinea pigs at my other house

do you have a wife ? no eh! just kiddin.you know cats i think thats probly it.

lol i well it could've been my stepmom xD

I don't know if you have foxes in Belgium or not. But foxes will make a high pitched screech that sounds like a woman screaming hysterically.

Did it sound like this? www.youtube.com...

gah! that fox cry was pretty startling! i don't know if you have fisher cats in Belgium, but we have them here in upstate New York, and their call is supposed to sound like a child screaming.

Sound almost like a baby crying?

Was it constant or did it come and go?

Did it sound like a vocalization, like a person was shrieking? Or otherwise?

i've never heard a fisher cat myself, but everything i've read says that they sound like a child screaming, so, maybe

Well if you have rabbits they will do the same when attacked.

We would hear scream like sounds during the night on the farm and it usually was from rabbits being attacked by a predator.

Yep! Exactly what I was getting at.

I believe that there is an owl that makes a noise like that. If you listen to nature there are alot of wierd sounds.

it was a marten it happened again and then i went to look what it was and there were 2 marten running in my garden

Thanks for reporting back when you found out what it was.
