Mallards have both basic and alternative plumage, when they are getting ready to breed it is obvious in the male due to the classic look of the green head and colorful plumage this is known as alternative ,they molt and go to their basic plumage after breeding. The best way to think about basic and alternative is basic is like your every day clothes and alternative is "date night" clothes
