[Tweeters] Wood duck nest box

[THOMAS BENEDICT]

I think it depends on what you consider to be a "reasonable price". Lumber is very expensive these days. A Cedar 1x10 board costs around $6-$7 per foot at Dunn Lumber. And this plan https://www.ducks.org/conservation/waterfowl-research-science/build-a-wood-duck-box calls for about 12 feet of lumber, so materials alone could be nearly $80. 

This online store https://www.wildbirdstoreonline.com/collections/wood-duck-boxes has some next boxes in $60-$70 range, plus shipping.
