Friday Night Classics!!!


It's that time of year!!
Love is in the air....I can't verify that these are the same 1s but this is 4th year in a row these mallards decided to nest in the bushes close to were I park at work. Coons found the eggs 3 outta 4 years... hopefully they have better luck this year....is there such a thing as a duck nesting box or something that I could make to increase their chances of a successful clutch of eggs?

You don't necessarily make a nesting box for Mallards but rather a tube. I think Ducks Unlimited has some instructional videos on how to make them. Pretty simple
