Recently I received a birdfeeder with motion-activated camera. Lynn mounted it on the deck for me, but had difficulty getting screws into the very hard wooden rail, so she wound up putting it on in the only way she could manage. We agreed that it should be facing the other direction where there are trees in the background, so she took some measurements and is going to enlist the help of a friend to redo it. In the meantime, we got pictures of house finches and a Carolina wren.
These are cropped screenshots from short videos that the camera captured. I have to figure out how to get it to take still pictures.
It sounds like you've already had some wonderful moments with your new birdfeeder and motion-activated camera, despite the initial challenges! It's great that Lynn was able to mount it on the deck for you.
ReplyDeleteVery good idea,
ReplyDeleteI think you'll capture some excellent shots of the birds!
...what a great gift.
ReplyDeleteThe bird feeder cam is cool. Great photos.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday, have a great day and a happy weekend!
It will be great when you get it working properly. I’ll look forward to meeting the cast if characters who visit. House Finch and Carolina Wren is a terrific start.
ReplyDeleteGreat start to some winter visitors to the new feeder. Looking forward to seeing more!
ReplyDeleteLonely birds when taken be threaded such a pleasure, have a new year Linda.
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful idea!
ReplyDeleteI am going to get one of those things for me. I use a tripod mounted trail camera and even if it is flexible it is not optimal.
