Not a fabulous shot, but the caption just came to me in a flash of inspiration...
I'm pretty sure it's a Barrow's Goldeneye (or so I'm informed)

This was an extremely tight crop from the original (probably approaching 100% crop at a long range), so it doesn't look great. I just liked the angle of the duck's eyes - there's something menacing about it...
