Observation details
I have been hearing these calls from the top of the buildings for the past week, mostly after sunset, but also intermittently during the day, only at this location. At night, they occur with intervals of about 10 minutes, starting with irregular squeaky calls and ending with a repetitive call that remotely remind of pygmy owls or thick-knees. At this occasion, there seemed to be multiple birds that responded from both sides of the road, while the changes in volume suggested that they were flying around. However, I did not see them. Unfortunately, the traffic noise makes it almost impossible to get a good recording. I still have no idea what it could be. The sounds do not fit with what I know from Barn Owl.
