Where to see a Ruddy Duck in South Dakota

The Ruddy Duck is regularly recorded in the counties of 6 South Dakota state parks (eBird historical checklists). The strongest bets:

1. Richmond Lake State Recreation Area
2. Palisades State Park
3. Hartford Beach State Park
4. Sandy Shore State Park
5. Union Grove State Park
6. Angostura Reservoir State Recreation Area

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.
