With the latest freeze I got 14 of 16 wood duck boxes cleaned out and new cedar bedding installed. Had 13 of 14 boxes with duck nests in them.

I don't add the step as that's what a preditor would need to enter the box. Momma's just gotta work those bog'ol'gurl hips in.. cool


The storm with -7 and 20+mph winds made quick work of freezing the ponds over with a BIG safety margin.
