The look on his face is priceless! "I'm an idiot - do you mind? Must you rub it in?" LOL! ~ Lonnit

Thanks for the comments! Olaf, the exif data is:
1/125s f/9.0 at 400.0mm iso640 with Flash.

Roberta, I saw this shortly after you posted it - wanted to leave a comment, but didn't have the time (at work at the time, working late). The snow on the head and in the air, the color and the eye-contact and expression really make this a very special shot! I wished for the exif, to see shutter-speed and if slow-sync fill-flash was used? Also, got a laugh out of your title - although I think I would have played on the direct eye-contact and expression of the bird if I were to put a title on this. It seems to be saying something like, I'm cold, have mercy, please feed me!

Right you are, Traveller, the bird's expression is priceless. I intended to mention it in my original comment but I'm easily distracted! -Michael

Yes, what Michael said, plus the expression on the Bird's face...just great. Best Wishes, Traveller

This really appeals to me. The red blush of feathers and snow on the head really makes it. -Michael
