Interesting Bufflehead Facts:

The Bufflehead nests almost exclusively in holes excavated by Northern Flickers and, on occasion, by Pileated Woodpeckers.

Unlike most ducks, the Bufflehead is mostly monogamous, often remaining with the same mate for several years.

The Bufflehead lays eggs more slowly than most other ducks, commonly with intervals of two or three days between eggs.
