Tadorna ferruginea
A brownish-orange duck, with a white head, and black tail feathers. It was alone, standing in the shallows.
Spotted at "Swan Lake" at the Chengdu Panda Base.
Beautiful photo! This is called a ruddy shelduck :) They have an understated beauty to them, I think. I like the symmetry with the reflection!
