I'm guessing at the ID. It sounds like there are 2. One doesn't stop making noise, the other seems to have 2 pitches.

Found this in Friendly Village a week ago. I have called this a flying ground cricket but have seen no reference to it in any orthoptera guides. Had first seen them in Columbus, Ohio in 1969. Since then in Toledo, Ohio and now Perrysburg. I have seen them fly before also. This one didn't get a chance.
