What comes first - the wood duck or the egg?

….or does it depend on humans building them a nest first? 

No mater what outdoor sport you focus on in late June/July you are bound to come across a mama hen followed by a bunch (or raft) of ducklings either paddling or waddling behind. 

On this episode of 'Network Outdoors The Podcast' Brandon Malson sits down with Zach Clevenger, Co-Founder of Duck Dens, to talk about Cavity Nesting Ducks and their absolute dedication towards supporting waterfowl habitat.

In this episode we will cover topics like:

-what is a cavity-nesting duck
-why some ducks build their own nests
-what’s the best material to use to build your own box
-duck dens explained
-waterfowl hunting
-wood duck habitat 
-the best time of year to setup your duck den
-ideal setup for multiple duck dens
-how you can help conservation efforts
-a few fun stories 
-and much more!

The future of beautiful wood ducks and other cavity nesting birds heavily relies on the actions and decisions we make moving forward. If you have a passion for the wetlands, bird watching, waterfowl hunting, or nature in general…you won’t want to miss this one!!
