For me, the lighting is a bit strong, or is casting a yellowish glow. The eye does fall into a rule of third intersecting point which is good. By the way...is that white chocolate?

Doesn't really have any rule of thirds components to score well

I think the lighting is too harsh. Did you use a flash? The duck, to me, isn't very appealing to look at.
