Hi Chris, Thanks! The recording has some similarity, but the bird I posted is doing slightly different but it is close. I found one on Audubon's bird app too, which was similar to Xeno-Canto example.
I do use Xeno canto and have uploaded quite a few recordings there and yet to do many more. I used to use this site often when it was only for South America years earlier!

This was my best guess for species, as well, because of the timbre of the call. The rich ringing quality of the song in your recording is what tipped me off. Hooded Warblers seem to carry through the woods quite well. Incidentally, Xeno-Canto is a phenomenal resource for recorded songs, both as a place to upload known bird songs to, and as a place to search for examples that have already been posted there.

I was thinking either it was a weird Redstart or a Hooded and that is what I posted on Sunday. The last two phrases do sound like Hooded. I had never heard of this version. Now I would like to track it down sometime when I get time. Now one more song to remember! As I was typing this I got Alicia's email too. You guys are quick and good!

I heard this song for the first time earlier this week and had no idea what it was until I tracked down the singer. The version I heard had a ringing metallic quality to the finish. It sounded very strange and I recorded it. When I figure out how to post I will.

It was in a pine and mixed hardwood woods. To me it sounded that the bird was feeding in the middle layers of the woods and moving. I did not spend time to track it down as my friend's kids wanted to see the Hairy Woodpeckers. There is also spectrogram of the sound on the Soundcloud if that is helpful. https://soundcloud.com/meena-haribal/130519-01tewtewwhichwhich BTW, one of the kids is hooked to birds. My friend told me that early morning while brushing he was commenting that he is hearing an unfamiliar bird! Any clues or suggestions are welcome.
