I have no experience with ducks whose owners care enough to build a shelter. The one's in our neighborhood are really feral - the "owner" gives them corn twice a day - that's it.

Ours do seem to often sleep in trees - some on branches barely over the pond; some in pine trees 10-15 feet up. The females are more likely than the males to do so. But they both have been up there.

I do know that most of their flying is quite low to the ground: "Incoming at 5 feet!" is a common warning.
