Wood duck nest boxes If you live on or near a lake, stream or wetland, you can improve your chances of seeing wood ducks by putting up a nest box. In Florida, nesting can happen anytime from late January to August with most nesting occurring February through June. Now is a great time to build a nest box or clean, repair and replace nesting material in an existing one. Whether you’re building or maintaining a next box, don’t forget the predator guard to improve the chances of a successful hatch!

Protecting Wood Ducks Together! 🦆 Wood duck nesting spots can be scarce, but thankfully, wood ducks accept manmade nest boxes when natural ones are lacking. Our biologists ensure these boxes are available on select public waters in Florida. Plus, we collaborate with private citizens, government bodies, and local organizations like Ducks Unlimited chapters and Boy Scout troops to build and upkeep these crucial nesting spots.
