    Robert, very nice close-up.
    It looks to me that it needs a slight rotation.

    This lady duck is so prety. You did justice to her showing this beauty picture, Robert. The slight head turn is just enough and the details are great.

    Like the pose with just the right head turn and eye contact. From experience I know that white patch is tough to expose properly; you did well. The image feels a little cut off at the bottom of the frame. I agree about some CCW rotation, and I'd remove the specular highlights on the bill.
