MOSTLY IT WAS DONATION OF TIME WHEREBY THEY HAVE PLACED MULTIPLE WOOD DUCK NEST BOXES ON VARIOUS PROPERTIES TO FACILITATE A MORE SUCCESSFUL HATCH AND SURVIVAL RATE. THEY HAVE SEEN AN INCREASE IN SURVIVAL RATE IN THE WOOD DUCK POPULATION IN THE AREAS WE HAVE PLACED THE NESTING BOXES. PLANTING OAK TREES THEYVE GROWN FROM ACORNS FOR THE MAST PRODUCTIONS OF ACORNS, WHICH IS A CRUCIAL SOURCE OF FOOD FOR MANY TYPES OF WILDLIFE FROM SQUIRRELS TO HOGS TO DEER AND WATERFOWL. THERE HAS BEEN AN INCREASE IN WILDLIFE BEING SUSTAINED AS THE TREES PLANTED REACH MAST BEARING AGE AND ARE MATURE ENOUGH TO PRODUCE ACORNS. THE NON-DISPLACEMENT OF BEAVERS WHICH ENCOURAGE THE BUILDING OF DAMS/BERMS BY THE BEAVERS AND THE CREATION OF WETLANDS WHICH PROVIDES SHELTER AND SUSTENANCE FOR MANY SPECIES OF ANIMALS.
