Very nice shots @mikenevitt!
I saw you already posted a lot photo- and video-updates about the nestbox and perhaps you also already answered the question that came up to me when I saw the posts but I could not find anything.
Can you tell me about the camera installation?
What kind of camera and how did you install it?
So cool to be able to watch these bird building their nest - it will become even more exciting when the baby-birds arrive :)

The camera is from a company called green feathers they do a number of different ones the one I choose is the IP camera it just connects to your WiFi Box using a Ethernet cable

The nestbox I made myself and if you look Carefully you will notice a small window I put in to let in more light

I first seen the camera on YouTube I watched a few off there videos and then choose the camera that suited me Best, if like me you don’t like having cables all over your house I bought a power line adapter it works great for me. PS green feathers also have a great after sales help line. I look forward to maybe following some of your nestbox cam update one day cheers mike

Nice setup - thanks for your explanation!
Some years ago I built a box myself also but did think about a camera inside.
When we moved to another city I left the box behind because it was always used :)
So now - after being inspired by you - I will build a new one with a camera inside.
But I will be too late for this years season. Nevertheless, I'll build it already so I can lose the smell and birds can find it for the next season.
Thanks and steem on!

It will give you time to choose a camera that suits you, the is a few things to consider like power etc , thanks mike

he is seeing the camera? :D

It’s possible, cheers

Beautiful photography.. The bird has so nicely prepared it's nest..
