beccauk Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Hi I wasnt sure where to put this but was thinking of getting a birdbox with a camera fitted saw one in a nationwide store ( dont know if can give name on here ) which is £39.99 from £59.99 but had a 30 meter cable, which I dont really want to trail from bottom of garden so I started fhinking of looking for a wireless one but the reviews online are abit hit and miss and prices seem vary , so wondered if anyone has one to recommend.

Old Speckled Hen Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Look out for the ones in Lidl and Aldi, though it might be the wrong time of year. They are really excellent. As far as cable goes just wind it up into a coil just where it comes inside. Wireless cameras still need power so you will have to run electricity to it. My first camera was from HandyKam. A little more pricey but they have an excellent customer service base and spares. We are keeping an eye on two Blue Tits, one Great Tit and One Nuthatch There are a pair of nesting Tawny Owls in the box that husband put up last year so that will get a camera in the autumn. Ohh......and a pair of nesting Red Kites through a scope set up in the sun room.......it's addictive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
