It might be early (I'm not good about keeping track), and I haven't heard any 
here yet, but my nocturnal, maddeningly monotonic repeater during breeding 
season is a Yellow-billed cuckoo. For a version of the monotone I'm talking 
about, check out the "Song" link at this Patuxent Bird Infocenter page:  
http://www.mbr-pwrc.usgs.gov/Infocenter/i3870id.html   
The Flathead Audubon Soc link is also a great resource, and features the 
"daytime" song of the YB cuckoo 
http://www.flatheadaudubon.org/content/birds/songs/index.htm

The first time I heard that call at night, I scratched my head for days until I 
chanced to hear it make one characteristic "kowlp" before it went back to the 
monotone.

I'll be very interested in others' suggestions.

P.S. Two of my cats brought in the first ticks of the season tonight. Bleah. 
That part of spring is here early, too.

We have a bird in our the greenbelt behind our house that starts calling
after dark and calls off and on until 5 or 6 a.m. The call is one monotone
sound after another with as few as 1 repetition and as many as 44
repetitions. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks Sandy Perry Herbie
