Because the local red fox population is feeling amorous tonight.

And do you know what amorous red foxes sound like?

If I use any descriptors that come to the forefront of my mind, Mr. Berkeman is likely to give me another weinie point for offending somebody.

You're going to have to listen to this YouTube video to believe it.

Not the best recording, my local ones sound much more like human women.

I've heard similar calls in the neighborhood, in the wee hours of the morning. The first time, I thought it might be someone in distress. We have found a kit in our back yard in the past.
