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!!!
