I can think of 2 different things...
Broken tooth on flywheel. Whenever it happens to stop with the broken tooth lined up with the starter, it'll screetch. That doesn't really explain why it'll work OK by simply trying again.
Messed-up starter solenoid. That's supposed to extend the starter pinion gear out to engage the gear-teeth of the flywheel. Sometimes it doesn't go out far enough? Maybe time for a new starter.
