Best Answer

Like other waterfowl, mallards use different habitats for breeding and wintering. During breeding season (spring) they can be found from the northern United States all the way to the Alaskan coast on the Bering Sea.

Within this range, mallards prefer the Prairie Pothole Region of southern Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. This region is marked by numerous wetlands, or 'potholes', that offer the wetland and upland habitats mallards and other migratory waterfowl need for breeding and nesting.

Mallards tend to leave their wintering areas early to reach the breeding grounds, usually taking off in February and March. In the spring and fall migration, mallards move through different parts of North America. While most move through the western half of the continent, some can be seen in eastern and Atlantic Canada.

During the winter, mallards can be found throughout many parts of the United States. Many also winter in southern British Columbia, Alberta and northern Mexico.

The range map found on the Wikipedia article (listed below) indicates 49 of the 50 United States (not Hawaii) as host to the proliferate Wild Duck, AKA Mallard Duck.
