About the most common duck there is, just not around here.
From what I can tell they don’t have the instincts to live in a swamp. Like zero skills! That’s an observation, no scientific facts to back it up.
I just want to drive him over to a park or backyard pond somewhere.

It does seem strange to see a mallard in a swamp setting. Let us know how he made out if you’re able to follow him again. I must say that I was surprised by coming across a male mallard at Orlando Wetlands a few years ago, but the marshes there are not really the same as this swamp habitat, I imagine.
I saw one there too 😁. Last year a pair made a nest and had eggs…in the middle of an alligator trail. 😳
I wonder if we saw the same one!
😁, zero survival skills.
Can’t really recall for sure if I saw it a year ago or a few years ago.
