<<I've seen wood ducks in a lot of lakes up in the Cascades and even near my home here. Do you have them where you are?>>

We call them squeelers because of their whistle. I've had lunch a few times with Dr. Bellrose, he's the guy who came up with the idea of building wood duck nesting boxes.

<<My favorite is the wood duck. I like them because they are loners, like me.>>

I've seen them on small ponds in the timber where they're so thick you can't see the water. When 1,000 of them flush off a 1/2 acre pond they have to leave in waves because there isn't enough room for them all to fly at once.
