My daughter was recently hiking in Big Creek Park and saw your mallard duck nest you created. We have a pond and each year a mallard pair attempt a nest but it is near our house or bottom of a tree. Unfortunately the raccoons eventually find it. We would like to make one to help this pair enjoy our pond. Do you have directions perhaps you could please send to me? It is a tubular, horizontal nest having straw for the duck to go inside. Thanks.
