Nemesis
A couple of birders had thrown some seed onto the snow to entice the local birds to come down but red squirrels, smart little critters that they are, watched all the activity and decided they wanted in on the action too. This little guy chattered up a storm - clearly unhappy that I was in his way. I had just enough time to grab a quick closeup before he jumped out of my frame. Cute as he or she was with his icy whiskers, squirrels are my nemesis as they have defeated virtually every one of my attempts to keep them out of our bird feeders.
