Maybe the duck in the foreground had just come up from diving and startled the other duck. The ducks are creating nice ripples in the water. Given it was October they are probably fueling up and getting ready for another leg of their trip south.

Interesting image, Yves. It looks like something happened to the bird at the bottom.
