None of the robin boxes currently have cameras in, But they can have if they are used my Robins, I think I have more chance of the Wren using them again so it will be camera outside the box set up.
Cant wait to see your starling boxes up and running Matt!
15 boxes!! The incredible thing is, you seem to fill most of them as well..
I'll have 6 this year: 3x tit, 1 x robin (or whatever fancies it), and 2 x starling. I wasn't going to put a camera in the starling boxes because it was "too hard", but I have bitten the bullet and bought a POE (Power Over Ethernet) switch and will be able to run power/network the required distance now, so that did set things back a bit. Hopefully it will be worth the effort! The starling box I am most hopeful for is the one that is going over the hole in the wall that the starlings have used for the past two years. Hopefully they will be tricked into using the box instead..
I haven't updated my thread in a while, but I have been getting quite a few visits to the concrete boxes - I'll post some more pics soon, along with the starling boxes.
