The wood ducks pass through in eth spring and fall, and although this is supposed to be their year-round range, they don't seem to stay in the neighborhood for long.
Look for Wood Ducks in wooded swamps, marshes, streams, beaver ponds, and small lakes. They stick to wet areas with trees or extensive cattails. As a cavity nester, Wood Ducks take readily to nest boxes.
