What is this sound?

[JacobH28]

I just spotted a fox and decided to keep being my girls into the run and coop for safety measures. They suddenly keep making this noise and it sounds alarming. It goes on continuously for 30 sec - 1 min. Any ideas as to what she is saying?

Most likely your hens have spotted the fox too, and are sounding the alarm.

Oh okay! Thank you

That have different alarm sounds.
Arial predators v/s ground predators.
I think there might be a predator v/s I SEE IT, RUN FOR YOUR LIFE.
They sound similar but the volume and speed goes up with how close the threat is.

That's a great way to characterize the different sounds
