The Wood Duck is one of the most beautiful birds you will ever see.  You should have your box placed by the beginning of February as they begin nesting early in February in the southern states and somewhat later in the north. 

If you live near a pond or lake with trees nearby you should be able to attract the Wood Duck to your nest box.  They will readily welcome the box to nest in.  This nest box is made from 1” seasoned hardwood lumber.  The dimensions are 32” x 10” x 15”.  It has an oval entrance hole 3”x 4” located 19” from the bottom.  It has drainage holes in the floor and wire mesh under the entrance hole for the young to use in exiting the box.  Instructions for hanging will be included along with enough wood shavings to put in the bottom for nesting.
