Thanks to everyone who has commented so far on the mystery call. We are pretty sure that what we were hearing is a Red Fox. After a few of you suggested that possibility, my husband searched the call on the web and found a site (possibly a Dutch site but has the scientific name right) that had the call. http://sunsite.ee/loomad/Imetajad/VULVUL2.htm Perhaps the fox was chasing a heron for breakfast that morning....
