Every night since moving house I can hear a noise. It sounds like a flying dog squeaky toy!! A neighbour suggested a duck?
What makes a squeaky noise, other than birds? It shuts up if the foxes make noise!
Help!! Am getting insomnia!!

Stating the obvious here but are you sure it's not an owl? ?

I'm still seeing bats at dusk, maybe hibernating late due to weirdly warm weather?

i was working late doing paper work the other night and i heard a squealing noise, so rushed out and it was a bunny rabbit, a fox must have caught one, it was dreadful, so i ran up the field shouting OI you drop that bunny! silence lol

Of course, it might be a doggy squeaky toy! Sorry Starlings do a kind of odd squeaky electronic noise. THey don't usually make much noise at night tho--unlike the 300 sparrows who live in our Virginia Creeper who party and row all night. I'm almost tempted to poke a stick into the bush and stir them up a bit to make them go away, but they're such bossy little s0ds I think they'd probably attack me!
