Not sure if we will be building any wood duck boxes this year. But I have decided to take a group of my club members. And have a huge clean out project. We have more then ONE hundred and twenty or so boxes out in the bays and swamps in our area. And if we can clean them out it will be like putting that many new boxes out. Last year we could only clean out a few boxes. Because of the lock downs here in New York State. We did put out twenty five new ones last winter into the Spring. I'm here to tell you that wood duck boxes work great. I have been doing this for many many years. With great success!!!!!!!
Yes ! you need ducks in the area you place them. And yes! you will fail sometimes. But when a box hits its a great feeling. When ducklings jump out of the box its such a great moment. You did something great for nature. Do your part clean out any old boxes if you can. Build a box and watch the magic.
Its people like us that give back year after year to what we love. That makes us special people.
