I feel pretty sure it is an owl. The "Screaming Chitters" call of the Great Horned Owl seems to sound as he described.

Rarely do song birds sing at night, except for the mocking bird.

If you go to the site and play the above mentioned call it sounds like what Squirrelly is describing.

I've seen bobcats in southern ohio. Chances are thats what it is. But like said your safer in the woods then on the street in ohio.
