A Sooty Fox Sparrow foraging in the ice!
I put fresh seed out on top of the one inch of freezing rain to make it easier for the birds to reach the seed. However, the FOSP chose to dig the seed out with his huge claws. He has a piece of cracked corn in his beak with a bit of ice on it. He also has ice crystals on his tail and feathers. FOSPs are one of my favorite Winter visators.
