The temperature dipped to -22 Celsius at night. I rushed over to Burlington Bay to see if there was still some open water.
There was and the Duck came close to shore.
Thanks for looking.

A lovely lady, Karl. The light and surroundings are beautiful. You are to be commended for facing the elements to get this attractive photograph.

Nicely done Karl, the warm light certainly gives a false impression of the conditions you and the duck were enduring!

Watched two of these trying to choke down a large fish a couple of days ago. Very nice shot of this understated lady duck.

Good work Karl. The hens certainly deserve attention every now and then :)
