Love these fellows, nice shot. 
Beautiful!
Considering the weather would it be still alive?

I didn't realize that Mandarin Ducks were in the wild. I had just assumed that they were confined to zoos, etc. You made a good shot.

A sterling capture. Have never seen one in real life but have learned to love them by seeing photographs like yours.
