    Bird sounded like a cuckoo clock

    It was at a friend's house on the Clinton River in Rochester Hills, MI, around Noon.  I could not, unfortunately, spy the bird.  The call sounded just like a cuckoo clock, but is not a cuckoo, according to the various sound libraries I checked.  Does anyone know what bird makes a call like this?  Thanks for any leads.....
