It's stuck - got to get it out!

We had these little birds eating bird seed on the railing around the deck. This one appeared to have something stuck in its beak, and as I was photographing it - I got this one when it shook its head from side to side. And this is what I got. Had a number of shots with the bird in good focus, but this is the one that I liked best. Not quite sure what all the dots and dashes are...... think one bit might be the offending seed that was stuck.
Another drizzly day, but not much rain out of it.
The Pups met a horse today, and the horse likes to play with dogs, but the pups weren't too sure. So I will have to look into the possibility of a blip a about this.
