Pine Wood Duck House
Provide beautiful waterfowl a robust shelter by adding this Pine Wood Duck House by Prime Retreat to your water’s edge. These colorful birds typically nest in abandoned woodpecker or other cavities, as they are unable to excavate their own, and this generous roosting box lends them another fantastic option. Made from classic pine, this significant shelter wonderfully meets the needs of wood ducks. Its 4″ wide and 3.25″ tall, oval opening is perfectly sized for this duck, and the deep body keeps nestlings far away from predators. An overhanging, slightly sloped roof prevents rain from entering the home, and slits beneath it ensure plenty of ventilation. Corner gaps on the nest floor offer drainage, and a metal grid below the entry helps fledglings climb to it when ready to exit. One side panel opens in dual levels for cleaning or nest checks, and makes it easy to affix a mounting bracket (not included) to the base for placement on a post. The home can also be attached to a tree near the water’s edge, where wood ducks typically nest. The 0.75″ thick, all pine construction forms a hardy abode, and the wood weathers beautifully over time for a striking effect. Ensure ducks have plenty of nesting options by placing this Pine Wood Duck House in your yard. Made in the USA.
