I'm not in Ohio at the moment; I'm on vacation in Massachusetts, but
as far as I can tell there are no birds here that don't also live in
Ohio, so hopefully someone can help me.

I've been hearing a singing bird the last few days, something I've
never heard before, but something that must be reasonably common
because I heard it several times in my father's yard, and also I heard
three different birds calling back and forth to each other from the
woods, out on a nature trail (I looked everywhere and couldn't find
spot any of the three even though it was obvious what trees they were
in!)

The song is a vibrating trill, repeated about four times
consecutively, and it's very rich, sounding like it's in an echo
chamber.  It's rather remarkable that one bird could make this sound,
but it is definitely just one.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?
