Duck, Duck, No Goose

Last fall my neighbor had a pond dug and before it filled he installed a few poles with the intentions of installing some wood duck houses. This spring he brought over a duck house he had and was asking some questions about building another one. I offered to help him build one, a few weeks later when he came over to help me unload some plywood he had a nice 10' cedar 1x12 and a plan he found for a simple wood duck house. It was a simple project but fun to build.

The side opens up so the house can be cleaned out yearly

The saw kerfs allow the little ducks something to use to climb out

Here is the duck house he originally had and the one I made from the plans he had.
