2016 is retirement time! Feb to be exact. Still looking for our final farm for purchase as we speak. Seen many, missed out on a few, but hope to be in something by late spring/early summer. Not in a hurry, God will tell us when we find it!
Wood ducks sometimes won't use boxes if there are not trees on the pond around the box. Finicky they can be. On a hunting property lease a couple years ago, we put out or cleaned out around 35 boxes. We had @70% usage of the boxes. Put game cameras on a few on video setting and got several duckling drops! Cool to see that. Woodie hunting that fall was spectacular!
Happy New Year,
God Bless
