Where to see a Mallard in Alabama
The Mallard is regularly recorded in the counties of 20 Alabama state parks (eBird historical checklists). The strongest bets:
- Monte Sano State Park
- Lake Guntersville State Park
- Cathedral Caverns State Park
- Paul M. Grist State Park
- Oak Mountain State Park
- Gulf State Park
- Meaher State Park
- Historic Blakeley State Park

- Lakepoint State Park
- Blue Springs State Park
- Mallard-Fox Creek Wildlife Management Area
- Lake Lurleen State Park
- Tannehill State Park
- Frank Jackson State Park
- Cheaha State Park
These are county-level records — the species is documented in the area around each park, which is a strong steer rather than a guarantee for the park itself.
