A beautiful woodie and a fine shot. The ice is well exposed and I like that little strip of open water that catches just a hint of his reflection. Best of luck in the contest.

A beautiful picture of the Wood drake attired in his beautiful colourful & exotically looking plumage watching you closely with his red eye as he walks on the ice with his partial reflection seen in the patch of open water. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

an excellent entry to the "fire and ice contest" with this capture of a male wood duck walking on the frozen water; sharp focus with nice natural colors; we have a few of these birds in our area;

Beautiful capture of this handsome drake wood duck out on the ice,i like the inclusion of the open water,showing a sliver of reflection,the golden tones in the foreground contrasting with the bluish undertone of the ice. A great choice for the contest,wish you all the best!

Cool! That's a fine looking picture,my friend!
The duck seems to have a calm 'laid back' expression that makes the picture extra enjoyable to look at!

Quite a nice nature photo posted here! Think your title is rather strange, but maybe that is because I am a Brit. Like your ducks plumage and reflection. Exposure and sharpness are good. Well done and good luck!
