The bird box should be fully captured by the wide-angle lens, and it comes with an app that lets you view the video on a smartphone or tablet even when you’re not at home.

Additionally, there is a microphone to record audio and a MicroSD slot to add more storage to the device. Green Feathers also sells the camera in conjunction with a sizable, FSC-certified timber bird box, in case you don’t already have one.

RSPB Nest Box Camera System

This bird box does not need to be placed close to an outdoor power source because it comes with a 30-meter cable to connect the camera to your TV or computer. In addition to having LEDs for night vision and a microphone to record any noise the birds make, the camera records full color images during the day.

The corresponding nest box is appropriate for several species, such as sparrows, grey tits, and blue tits, and it is crafted in the UK using FSC-certified wood. If you’d like, it can also be transformed into an open front bird box for wrens and robins.

Which is the best way to face a bird box?

The recommended direction to face a nest box is between north and east, as this will provide natural protection from direct sunlight, wind and rain, creating a more suitable and safe environment for growing birds. The box can also be tilted marginally forward to allow any rain to run clear of the entrance.

Can you put a camera in a birdhouse?

We just put long screws in the top of the birdhouse to have something for the camera to sit on. First, you need to remove the birdhouse roof. Then, drill holes to avoid cracking the cedar. Use the holes to gently screw the screws in.
