Keening

The howling wind created a keening sound as it swept through the narrow alleyways.

The air raid siren's keening pierced through the city, signaling imminent danger.

The keening shriek of the fireworks lit up the night sky.

The keening odor of a skunk made everyone hold their breath as they passed by.

The eerie silence of the forest was broken only by the keening call of a distant owl.

The eagle soared in the sky, keening its majestic call.
