The arrival of Jesus Duck is basically how you know a pond or lake is frozen over, when it is not necessarily obvious due to weather conditions, trees in the way, etc...

Its basically a duck walking on the lake when normally you'd see the duck (or swan or goose) half-in paddling away.

Jesus Duck does not bring gifts nor does he rise from the dead. His only message is that the body of water is now potentially traversable with skates.
I wasn't sure if the pond was frozen over or just very still, but Jesus Duck arrived and my insatiable curiosity was slated.
