To find this duck, head out to the Iroquois National Wildlife Refuge off Route 63, a good 6 miles north of the NYS Thruway. After passing the flashing light in Alabama, start looking for Roberts Road on your right. Turn right on Roberts and head to Sour Springs Road. Turn left on Sour Springs and follow the road out to Oak Orchard Creek, which flows under the first bridge you come to. Check the quadruple trunked tree on the left just over the bridge for our wood duck, but stay still and look around for the real ones that populate this area in the spring.

Note: Sour Springs is a seasonal road, so it tends to be filled with potholes and not paved very well. In the winter, the road is only open up to the nature trail, but you can park and walk past the “Road Closed” sign to the bridge. Regardless, exercise caution in making your way out here and to the box!

Happy Hunting!
