Beavers moved into my land a couple years back, they have damed up 1.0+ acres. I added a few wood duck boxes. Thinking about cutting some trees this year to open up the area. Just wondering what you guys experience is with how long it takes wood ducks to find and move into a new swamp, I haven’t seen the first duck so far. Is there things to do to improve? Thought about enhancing the food chain a little (yellow gold) just to help, not for hunting of course but just attracting. Built a new pond close by on the property a couple years back also and had a few ducks stop by it but none in the beaver ponds. Site is within 1/4 mile of another large beaver swamp and lake Greenwood, Any advice on next steps to improve or just let nature do its thing?
