Most likely a sticking bendix drive mechanism on your starter motor. The fix would be removing the starter motor, cleaning and lubricating the sliding gear or bendix drive mechanism where needed, and reinstalling the starter.

The lubricated bendix drive will allow the starter drive gear to more quickly retract from the flywheel ring gear, as the engine "catches."
