This cute Nest Box with IR Camera is what you get if you combine a traditional wooden bird nesting box with a clever bit of wireless networking and an infra-red camera. Hook the wireless receiver to your television and you’ll be able to watch all those dear little eggs hatch and giant dinosaurs chicks grow to adulthood right there in your garden. Awwww….. £139.00.
Safely installed in the nest box, the 26 x 27 x 60mm camera will transmit live images from the bird house day and night (range up to 100m/328ft, 368,000 pixel resolution). A tiny microphone will transmit every little chirp. Just hang by a nail from a tree, a wall or garden shed at a height of 2 to 3 metres (6 to 9ft) and align the entrance hole (35mm in diam.) to the south or east – this provides the best protection for the nest box against predators and the weather.
