Description
Wood Ducks can be found George C. Reifel Migratory Bird Sanctuary in Vancouver area. I love to travel there, and view all the different birds. Mostly ducks, sandhill cranes few Owls, and some herons are there on occasion.
The Wood Ducks are especially beautiful. The hens are very light in colour. I photographed these two a year ago.
Wood Ducks eat fish, crayfish, frogs, tender small turtles, and aquatic insects for the most part. Occasionally they will also eat grains and fruit. They nest up perhaps ten feet or more in trees where the ducklings glide out onto the ground as pretty-much new hatchlings. That always amazes me. The nests are usually in hollowed out spaces in trees or in specially made “Duck boxes” on posts on the immediate shore or in the water on poles.
