Thanks Joan, while they do breed in autumn, none have come to my notice this year, though I haven’t looked too hard. Dependent young in winter is less common though, with the BIRD INFO data on the
COG website including only 5 records in June, and 1 in July. Inspecting hollows is more common in June, with 21 records (and 32 in July). Regards Jack Holland

Is this an unusual time for Wood Ducks to be breeding?
