Looks like a bit of lunch on it's beak, possibly a mite on the chest and dust or pollen on it's back and tail - they're easy to fix with even a simple graphics programme.

Nope nothing there!

A dead pixel will show bright white and it will be very very obvious. And exactly square.

A hot pixel will usually show red, green or blue, and again it will be pure colour.

Look on this page at the guys hand; forth picture down for a hot pixel.

And here for a dead pixel:

Both show very clear and obviously not part of the image.
