The Nest Box
Our very popular side view bird box offers market leading quality, durability and great value for money. Handmade in our
UK workshops from high grade PEFC Western Red Cedar (responsibly sourced) this gardenature design provides garden birds a
warm and secure place to raise their family. The camera positioning in this nest box offers the viewer a unique and rather
unusual side-on camera image (including the entrance hole), rather than the traditional top down view. The camera, cabling
and connections are safely mounted behind an opaque plastic panel whilst the camera lens discreetly protrudes into the nesting
chamber. As the camera is mounted at the top of the sloping side wall, nesting material and mess is kept away from the camera
at the base of the box. Also included are optional hole reduction / protection plates 28 & 32mm, making this nest box
suitable for a range of garden birds:
- Blue Tits
- Coal Tits
- MarshTits
- Great Tits
- House Sparrows
An original and popular design from gardenature that offers you a very different view on the secret lives of nesting birds.
The Bird Feeder Viewcam
The Camera
This Sony EFFIO CCD Ultra High Resolution 700TVL (TV Line) Camera has been designed specifically for use with Gardenature camera nest boxes and feeder camera kits. This truly outstanding bird box camera uses an intelligent Sony Effio DSP Chip which operates with a Super Light Sensor to cleverly adjust the image quality to suit its environment. Not only this, the light sensor also serves to adjust the x10 infrared night vision LEDs to a graduating on/off, gently supplementing loss or gain of natural light levels with an invisible IR. The result of this outstanding technology is that we can now produce ultra high resolution colour images in full light of day and sharp black and white images at night or low light level conditions. This mini nest box camera also incorporates a highly sensitive microphone so you can hear as well as see what's going on. The camera has a 3.6mm lens which produces a 92 degree viewing angle, the perfect setup for a nest box. The lens will have already been pre-focused to the correct position for you, but it can very easily be adjusted to suit alternative applications.
The Rest of the System
A professional x3 core cable (Audio/Video/12vDC) is already connected to the camera in the roof of the nest box, the other end of the cable needs to be routed into your property. The cable plugs are black, yellow and white. The black is for mains power and connects to the (supplied)12V DC power adaptor / plug. The remaining RCA yellow (video) and white (audio) connectors can either plug into a spare AV/AUX socket on your TV, / DVD recorder, or a spare TV scart input using the (supplied) scart adaptor. Switch on at the mains plug, then select the appropriate AV channel on your TV, sit back and wait for the show to start! All very easy but if you need any help we are just a phone call away.
