Feel free to critique the bored and my signature as well, I would really appreciate it. This was my first time shooting anything "wild".

Not a bad shot at all. Colors are very nice and the exposure is well executed.
Only minor thing that catches my eye is the orange of his bill and the orange reflection on the water. They're mixing with eachother, and maybe a slight tighter crop on the right side.

Other than that, I think you did exceptionally well.

Overall, it seems fine to me,but you can still make it better :

# The space on the left, behind the duck should have been on the right side, so that you show the animal's way/path.Maybe it was heading to an also interesting subject!

# Try to make your wild shots look much more natural, avoiding high-contrast and modifying colours the way you did.

#The sig looks great.Not too big, not too small.

Good job & Keep on shooting!
