Check out Dendroica website, then type in Northern Parula. I am hearing them sing their "B version" song more often these days, but you have described the "A" song. Dendroica has all their songs and calls.

<pre wrap="">Hi Everyone,
For those of you not familiar with the Dendroica website that Donna mentions, it is a fantastic, free access web site created by Environment and Climate Change Canada in partnership with USGS and CONABIO. It presents numerous photographs and song recordings for birds in the Western Hemisphere so it is not restricted only to Canada.
This web address will take you to the search window as a 'guest':

Simply look for Northern Parula in the list to the right of the photograph shown and click on the name. The display will refresh with the species you want.

I agree with Donna and Richard that the most likely bird song Eleanor is describing is that of a Northern Parula.
All the best,

Hi Eleanor: I'd agree with Richard Stern, that your bird is a Northern Parula. They have a buzzy, upward song that generally ends abruptly on a final downward note. Check out Dendroica website, then type in Northern Parula. I am hearing them sing their "B version" song more often these days, but you have described the "A" song. Dendroica has all their songs and calls.
The Red-eyed vireo is more reminiscent of the Robin, but with pauses between each phrase, and the males really wears himself out! It can get a little irritating after a while if he is close by. I don't think that's your bird, but you can check him out on Dendroica also.

I feel I should know this song, which I have been hearing relentlessly around my house for the past week - but for the life of me can't think what it is and it is driving me nuts!
It starts with an upwards-rising, slightly staccato schreeee which abruptly ends with a downwards cheeow and just goes on endlessly repeating. I've managed to get only one brief glimpse - a smallish bird which looked darkish amongst the leaves against the sky......................
ANY suggestions will be most welcome!!!
