I think that is an American Redstart. Blackburnians usually go up the scale and over the top at the end of their songs. Yours goes down in pitch at the end. 

Thank you for bringing up Xeno Canto. I had not come across that website.

I've compared the sonogram of this song to a variety on xeno canto, and this one seems to have components of Blackburnian songs on that site. I went to a different location this morning and heard another bird singing a very similar song type, but again couldn't see it (it was across a lake). I'm looking for some feedback on whether others agree with the ID as blackburnian. Any feedback would be appreciated. See xeno canto link for recording.
