C&C welcomed.

Nice pose and comp. The duck is a little dark. Some selective brightening might help. It looks like a very tough lighting situation.

Cute pose Lindy. I like the fact that the duck is walking on ice. I do agree the image is slightly underexposed and the duck in particularly could use some selective brightening. A hint of fill flash may have helped also to bring a sparkle to the eye and a lower shooting angle would have made this more eye-catching IMO.

I like the pose of this bird on the ice. I think you can lighten him some in post processing.

I love the pose. I too think the shot could benefit from some selective lightning of the bird. If you are processing in raw play with the fill light slider. I think you are looking at a real quick fix. Other wise a very nice capture.
