A few months ago Mike and his brother spotted wood ducks at the pond. The ducks hung around for a bit and then were gone. I started doing a bit of internet googling to see how to entice them to come and stay, and found that the habitat here is ideal for providing nest boxes. Found how to construction instructions and Richard built three of them. We spent most of yesterday afternoon putting them out on metal poles around the pond. Now it is a wait and see game to see if they come back to nest.
