[obol] Need ID Help: Mystery Bird Singing at Night

[Cindy Ashy]

For more than a week, there has been a bird singing a
melodious little tune outside my bedroom window far
after dark, some nights more actively than others. I
live in a residential neighborhood in Newport so I'm
sure the possibiities are limited. There are quite a
few trees in our backyard. It definitely is not an
owl. At first, I thought maybe it was a Whip-poor-will
but it doesn't sound quite like the Whip-poor-will I
had in my yard in Florida but somewhat similar. Like
the Whip-poor-will in Florida, it does seem to be
singing later and later as time goes on. Whatever it
is, I'm enjoying it. It's quite musical.

Could you guys please send me a list of possibilities
to help me figure this out.

Cindy Ashy.
