Nestbox Cam

[h2yoho]

Hi everybody. That time of year again. Can't believe how fast time has gone.
Anyway, I have my nestbox cam up & running for the 2007 season, and thought you'd like to know.
I have a bluetit in the process of building, so if you want to have a peep, pop along here. I have a microphone in the nestbox, but will not switch that on till later, that is if I can get it operating properly. Bit of interference at the moment, but working on it. Meanwhile, you may hear birdsong. That was the Dawn Chorus, recorded on the morning of 5/4/07.
Don't forget to take, and post, screenshots of any decent action.
Thankyou, and enjoy.   :D



BTW. Cams will be on during daylight hours, BST. If you get a grey picture, it's night, and not a lot to see.
Also. Please use a username, make yourself known, and join in the chat. We're a friendly bunch. well, most of us anyway.  lol

Ahhhh just the post i was looking for  ;D  ;D

Will be watching closely as per usual :P

Do you know what Dennis? Ive great news myself, for the very first time the blue tits have moved into one of my boxes .....yeahhhhhh .....cant tell you how happy i am.

My day now involves getting home from work, making a cuppa and sitting and watching the tits hard at work.

Oh the best things in life are free aren't they  ;D

I love the way she crash lands into the moss and then sort of burrows down into it, looks like fun :)

Gutted, i got home from work the other day and my bluetit box had been attacked by something, really not sure what, possibly a cat, now my nesting tits have scarpered :'( ....and they had been working so hard these past few weeks building their nests, i had so much pleasure watching them hard at work.

Hubby rescued the box and resecured it, (as it had been pulled away off its brackets) and i hoped they might come back but ive not even seen them feeding in the garden, no sight of them anywhere   :'(  :'(

OH WOW!!!!! Thes are both fantastic. Can't wait to show my little girls, they'll go mad! my old neighbours had nesting blue tits and they were just fantastic fun. Looking at the nest when they'd gone too - a true work of art!

That's a wonderful webcam.  It's so close.  The chicks have lots of feathers now, they are so cute.

PS copy paste the link into the browser to go directly to the nest.  The link only takes you to the main page if you click on it.

Five eggs in the nest now...

[h2yoho]

First 2 chicks hatched yesterday, 14.5.07, so now the work begins. lol

[froglets]

Sooooo frustrating   >:(  I followed this last year but this year work have upgraded their firewall etc & I can't get it to load.

Grrrnnnnggggggg........

( ok, ok, so I should be working......)

[emmy1978]

Oh h2yoho that's fantastic. Me and my girls have been glued to nestbox cam and they've been talking about it at school!  ;D

[Mrs Ava]

Poop.  Been checking in whenever I could, and I missed the new chicks!

[mc55]

 ::) I still can't see anything .. just get a black screen.

[Jeannine]

The badgers are on there right now, go to the lonk and then hit the badgers logo, a man in wellies just put food down and thete are 4 badgers and two foxes

[Robert_Brenchley]

There are a couple of great fat rats on the badger cam now.

[mc55]

this is so frustrating - any ideas what I can try to make it work ?  I've tried 3 different machines on two different networks and can't see it on any of them. 

We use Opera and block pop ups.  Have also tried in Explorer and 'allow pop ups' .. still no success.

[emmy1978]

MC55 - don't know what prob is - i use yahoo and sometimes i can't see webcams. This is one of the first ones i can see. quite often on here i can't see photos too. I get a little box with a red cross in it. I am hopeless with computers though. I don't like exploring too far in and BIL who is my computer expert is in columbia so utterly useless!
Why don't you try in the computer section, I've had a few probs solved from there, as usual for a4a!!  ;D

The eggs have hatched - parents feeding the babes
