We put a camera on our wild bird feeders to see what would happen.
We offer 2 separate webcam speeds, slow for dial up users and fast for those with a cable or DSL.
Streaming video webcam.
Slow static cam
We are almost ready to move the cam to the new feeding station.
Check back often
This webcam above refreshes every 60 seconds.
Thanks for viewing our wild bird feeder cam.
The cams are located outside our home and studio in the Village of Theresa NY.
Theresa is in Northern New York State in the Eastern Lake Ontario - Thousand Islands Region.
Our precise location is:
N 44.21661 W 75.78870.
In the summer there are many local food sources available such as berries, seeds and insects.
Since this feeder is in a new location we wanted to attract birds right away.
We placed another bird feeder on the other side of the arbor to increase the visibility.
We also put a bird bath below the feeder and filled it with clean water.
The birds are finally showing up and we are preparing a new more secluded area with an assortment of
feeders and water features.
Here is a list of the birds you might see:
Black Capped Chickadee
English Sparrows
Nuthatch
Evening Grosbeak
Cardinal
Junko
Starling
Gold Finch
Wrens
And many others.
And you might see a chipmunk as well !
Stay tuned !
We are in the process of setting up a hummingbird feeder cam.
This is the setup for the wild bird feeder webcam.
We use several different style feeders and a variety of seed.
There are natural flowers and the arbor provides cover and a place for waiting birds to land.
The bird bath is kept clean and filled with water.
We are featuring a "China Hat" terra cotta feeder right now.
The cameras are close and this posed a bit of a problem in the beginning.
Because we did not want to shoot through glass or plastic we left the end of the camera station open.
When it rained the drops glanced off the angled top of the feeder and into the lenses of the camera.
The result was a fuzzy picture and a wet camera. We solved the problem by placing some plastic over the feeder.
