Abstract

The utility model provides an artificial nest box for green-head diving ducks. The artificial nest box comprises a box body, a monitoring door and a supporting assembly. The box body is internally provided with a space for a green-head diving duck to move, a side plate of the box body is provided with a nest opening, a monitoring opening and a ventilation opening, the monitoring door is arranged at the monitoring opening in an openable and closable mode, and the supporting assembly is supported at the bottom of the box body and used for supporting the box body on the water surface. When the monitoring door is opened, a researcher can observe the internal condition of the box body through the monitoring opening, and the ventilation opening is used for ventilation of the box body. According to the artificial nest box for the green-head diving ducks, the box body can be placed on the water surface through the supporting assembly, the green-head diving ducks can conveniently use the artificial nest box, the utilization rate of the artificial nest box is increased, invasion of terrestrial organisms to the green-head diving ducks is reduced, and meanwhile the threat of climatic factors such as flood to survival of the green-head diving ducks can be avoided.
