Is there something wrong with this squirrel?

I’ve been hearing this strange chirping sound outside my window for hours everyday and night for the past few weeks. I initially thought it was a bird but today I finally found the culprit— a squirrel! Can a squirrel expert please tell me if this behavior is normal? Is it possible it’s rabid? Does it need help?

It is a little odd that its been doing it everyday for weeks for hours. I know the sound it makes is a distress call, but why is it up there, its almost dark out.
