Wood Ducks nest in trees. Preferred nesting sites are holes in hollow trunks or large branches of trees, but wood duck nesting boxes are also very comfortable for these colorful characters. Nests are lined with down taken from the breast of the female and are situated from 1 to 15 feet above ground, hanging on large trees. Nest boxes are usually placed close to water, although at times females select trees some distance from water.

The male Bluebird has a deep blue hood and upperparts; rusty red breast and crescent mark across upper back; white belly. The female coloring is sooty gray above, with dull blue wings and tail. Juveniles are similar to the female but grayer, with speckled under parts. Females are attracted by the vivid blue of the male and by the availability of nesting holes, which are often in short supply
