Re: Wood ducks!!!!

you need to make some nesting boxes for them--easy to make and you can find plans on the web.

I have a drake at the taxidermist right now getting mounted on a piece of drift wood---I'm going to try to get a hen next year and have it mounted with the drake.

Re: Wood ducks!!!!

I'm a bit spoiled for watching woodies. My dad has a pond on his property in northern MN that he manages for ducks. He maintains a half dozen nesting boxes on that pond and around another swampy creek on the other corner of his land. It's not uncommon to count 40 woodies on an average day. Lots of Mallards like it too. He had a backhoe in before it thawed and he dug some deeper spots and created a small island in the middle. He says he's got some Canada geese nesting on the island. He's had geese visit before but this is the first time they've nested there.
