For years now, our bird box cameras have been delighting nature lovers by providing amazing close-up images of eggs and chicks, direct from your garden. Our third-generation WiFi bird box camera lets you easily log in to watch or record footage directly from your phone or tablet. As the first camera of its type on the market to feature built-in WiFi, you don't even need to run a network cable out to the bird box - all it needs is power!
Just make sure that there is a WiFi signal where you want to install the bird box in the garden and then follow the simple configuration instructions in our setup guide. You can then watch live or recorded footage of the chicks from anywhere using our official app on an Android or iOS mobile device.
The camera itself features invisible night vision so that the camera can see in dark bird boxes without disturbing the birds. The wide-angle lens also means that you can get the entire inside of the box in the frame. A tiny microphone enables sound from the box to be hard as well. Furthermore, the in-built microSD card slot allows you to easily record footage – and even set up motion detection – directly from the app.
Please note that this camera works with 2.4 GHz WiFi networks only.
Need to extend the length of power cable between the camera and the mains? The standard power supply comes with 3 metres of cable. Purchase one of our extension cables for up to 20 metres of extra cable length.
Not enough light in the nest box?
The camera records in full colour provided that there is enough light during the day. Install our daytime LED lamp in the box to get the very best from the camera. Make sure everything is installed before the birds start using the box! Disturbing a nest can cause nest abandonment.
What’s the difference between your "Wireless" & "WiFi" camera?
Our original wireless camera does not have WiFi connectivity and has a much more limited range and image quality. Our WiFi camera offers much clearer HD images and an all-digital interference-free experience. The wireless camera simply sends to a receiver and connects to a TV for live viewing; it does not record unless you have a separate capture device or recorder. However, the WiFi camera works with smartphones and tablets and has in-built recording to MicroSD cards.
Can I watch on my smartphone or tablet?
Yes! Our official app allows you to stream the camera live and watch back recordings.
Which devices does the app work with?
The app works on iPhones, iPads and Android phones and tablets. The app supports iOS 10.0 or later and Android 4.4 or later. Kindle devices are not currently supported.
Do I have to power this by the mains?
The camera needs to be powered by the included power supply to work reliably. We understand that it is not always practical to run cables, but we do have extension cables to add up to 20 metres extra length to the power supply cable.
What length of cable does the camera come with?
The power supply included for free in the kit has 3 metres of cable. You can purchase one of our extension cables for up to 20 metres of extra cable length.
Do I have to be connected to my WiFi to watch the camera?
There is a way of directly connecting to the camera without even needing to have a WiFi network. This method of direct connection does have a limited range, so we recommend connecting the camera to your WiFi network if possible. This allows you to connect into your camera even when you are away from home.
Will it work on my TV?
This camera is not designed to work on TVs unlike some of our other cameras that wire into the back of the TV. However, the app works on Apple TV and may also work on smart TVs that support Android apps.
The WiFi signal in my garden is weak. What do I do?
Not everybody’s WiFi signal can reach far into the garden. This is quite normal, especially in larger properties. One potential solution is to use a WiFi Repeater that can extend the range of your network into your garden so that the camera can receive a reliable signal. Failing this, it may be worth considering our wired options.
Can the camera record? For how long?
Yes! The camera features an in-built slot that supports microSD cards up to 128GB in capacity (card not included). This allows the camera to record footage for later playback and it can automatically overwrite older footage when it becomes full.
When recording, it uses about 2GB per hour of space, so with a 64GB card, you can expect the camera to record for up to 32 hours of footage and 64 hours using a 128GB card.
My camera is warming up, is this bad?
It is perfectly normal for the camera to feel warm to the touch while in operation. Don’t worry this won’t harm any nesting birds!
I’m not getting sound. How do I resolve this?
The microphone allows the camera to capture high-quality audio for such a small size. If you are not hearing any sound when you are watching your camera there are a couple of simple solutions.
First, ensure that the WiFi antenna or any cables are not touching the microphone so that you get the best sound quality. Second, ensure audio monitoring is enabled in the app.
I’m struggling to set up the camera on my WiFi network. What do I do?
Follow our help guides to get you up-and-running.
It’s not recognising my MicroSD card!
Make sure you have inserted the MicroSD card before powering up the camera. If the card is still not detected, you may need to ensure it is formatted properly in the FAT32 format.
Does this camera work on my 5 GHz WiFi network?
No, this camera only operates on the 2.4 GHz band. For dual-band WiFi networks with separate SSIDs connect to the "2G" or "2GHz" version. Some routers now have 2.4 GHz switched off by default and if you're not sure how to re-enable this please contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
