One of the reason why noise travels further and better at night is simply because the air is colder thus denser.
Sound travels more efficiently in a denser medium.
I used to live like 3Km away from a highway, during the day you could barely hear it, but at night, you can almost count the cars passing by.
Sound travels very well through water, about 4 times faster through water than air. Think about how well whales can 'talk' to each other over miles and miles apart. Sound just needs 'something' to travel through. Even warm air is better than cold air for sound wavces to travel through.

Yep, just like sound in water.
But as for the exact nature of this sound, I'm still puzzled.
If I ever hear it for myself, I will try a couple of experiments. Like, can I hear it on AM radio ? Short wave radio ? Clear sky or clouded ? and so on...
Anyways, carry on with the good work ATS, this is one of the best "strange sound" threads I have read since a couple of weeks.

Does ANYBODY know anything about this video? Is it authentic? If so, it puts a whole new face on the whole phenomenon. If my eyes are not playing tricks on me - those are UFOs floating over the L.A. skyline while all the strange sounds are happening. Input would be appreciated!

Person sounds very scared, and goes outside while sound continues.
No birds, sounds similar but not exactly the same...
