All,
Michael Quinn wins the prize!! I told him that none of the suggestions from everyone trying to help were not the “trilling” I heard. I asked—what if it wasn’t a bird way up in the trees? Bingo-he gave me a link to the alarm call of a red squirrel. That’s what I’ve been hearing!!!

I don’t think I’m describing the “trill” correctly. Did you take any Spanish in High School or College? If you did, say Maria in Spanish and listen to how you trill the “r”. I’ve listened to all the birds that everyone has suggested and it isn’t one of them. If you’re going to stop by the office for anything-poke your head into my office and I’ll trill for you!!!
Maybe it’s not a bird but another creature that I’m hearing up in the trees? I know the noises squirrels make, so it’s not a gray squirrel.
MAB.

Can anyone tell me what bird makes a trilling sound? I have one (or maybe 2) that I hear near my back yard. Back yard backs up to more than 200 acres of undeveloped land.
