Mallard
Occurred the most disproportionately in hexagons with May maximum temperature (hex. med.) of 18-23� C and April precipitation (hex. min.) of 19-91 mm. Almost as likely to occur in hexagons with slightly cooler May maximum temperature (hex. med. 12-17� C) if topography is relatively flat and May maximum temperature (hex. avg.) is 10.79- 17.05� C. The logistic regression analysis showed positive or negative association with agricultural lands, and-to a lesser degree-wetlands and wet shrubland, Douglas-fir - white fir - tanoak - madrone mixed forest, April precipitation (hex. avg.), May maximum temperature (hex. med.), June maximum temperature (hex. med.), July precipitation (hex. min.), and the extent of public land.
