My thanks to all who responded so promptly,and all with the same answer 
- which has taught me a most valuable lesson.

'My' bird is indeed a northern parula, but in my defence I have to 
emphasise that based on my one brief glimpse, this was one of the first 
birds I checked outonline. The Cornell recording I played at that time 
was NOT what I was hearing; it was similar, but what I call the 'chuurr' 
part was a much more gentle, rhythmic and melodic sound than I was 
hearing - so I promptly dismissed that possibility without looking 
further. But all your responses made me go back and check out a number 
of other sites, including other recordings on Cornelland what I found is 
not one, but three variations of the northern parula's song - both on 
Cornell, 'my' version also on BirdJam, Boreal Birds and Larkwire and one 
other 'Alternative Song' on YouTube. I stopped looking after that....
So thank you allfor leaving me sadder but wiser about searching!

Eleanor Lindsay
