An article written by Frederic Leopold that describes how to prepare for the spring return of nesting Wood Ducks and how to observe and track activity in the Wood Duck houses. Leopold also discusses the topic of shortening the open water fowl hunting season to limit the number of breeding ducks that are killed each year. The article was possibly published in the Burlington Hawkeye newspaper.
