Nice shot ...there is a small captive flock of these at the London Wetland Centre (UK) as part of some exhibits of wildfowl from around the world. I tend only to shoot the captives if there's not much else around of the wild birds that are residents or migrants .. of which there are a lot.

One thing about ducks they always have a smiling beak. That is why it is fun photographing them. Sun was getting harsh but still a good photo. Well done Ariel & Mabuhay.
