Bird ID help
I have a sparrow-like bird nesting in a my birdhouse on the front lawn. It is slimmer than a sparrow and a little larger that the hummingbirds we get in northern New Jersey. The feathers have a smooth look similar to a catbird, with a white breast and brown coloring for the head and back. It seem to have horizontal white stripes on the wings or tail. One feature is a dagger-like black mark from its eye downwards. Also, the bird has a pretty trill song. I can't get a decent picture of it due to the fact that it doesn't stay in one place long enough, plus my ancient iPhone is not great at distances. Any help in identifying it would be appreciated.
