Mine does the same and as soon as the engine warms up it drops ... think this is standard ...

yea, it is pretty normal for idle to be high, especially in colder temperatures. If it doesn't go away once the car warms up, then I'd begin to worry. Also, maybe your gas pedal is sticking, try to pull it up and see if the idle goes down.
