"Concentration"

This Common Goldeneye hen popped up along the ice edge after feeding on the bottom of the Rideau River in Ottawa.

 

There was only a small channel of fast-running open water beneath the pedestrian bridge after the several days of deep freeze we've been having.

 

The angle was steep as I was shooting between the bars of the bridge railing (I didn't trust the ice below).
