Both wood ducks and hooded mergansers will use these artificial nesting structures. Our biologist reminds us that one of the most important parts of putting up a wood duck box is the predator guard that helps to protect eggs and ducklings. | Tennessee National Wildlife Refuge | Facebook

"You jump, I jump, Jack." Unlike most other ducks, wood ducks use cavities for nesting, like this nesting box. Newly hatched wood ducks like these little ones often make a courageous leap from their cavity to the water or ground below. They attempt to slow their descent by flapping their wings and feet, but in most cases they are light enough that they "bounce" upon landing and do not sustain long-term injury. Then, it's off to follow Mom to some water! 📹 courtesy Doug Harms | Iowa Department o
