Observation details
Female and ducklings were roosting along the bank of the pond. She sounded an alarm call, and moved toward the high vegetation in the middle of the pond when she was disturbed by my presence. ( I had not seen them.) Every duckling quickly followed her. I looked around for a culvert, or pipe, or something that would have provided a cavity for nesting, but did not see anything obvious. See checklist for 26 May 2024. The only confirmed nesting of Wood Ducks in San Benito County was a brood at Anzar Lake, although they surely nest at other locations.
