Hi everyone, I hear this bird sing on the top of my neighbor's spruce every morning. I wonder whether this is a house wren. Please help. Thanks

Record its song and post on youtube and then post it here.  We should be able to ID by song.

The shape of the body and the one image that shows the tail pointing downward while singing leads me to believe it is a House Wren also.
