Wood ducks don't bring nesting materials to their nests, I've seen the other birds - starlings for sure but other native songbirds use them when the woodies either aren't using them or the chicks have fledged.

On locating duck houses from what I seen and read you should have them 'apart' what most say is that you shouldn't be able to see the opening of the house from any other house.
