Birders
Related: About this forumNeed recommendation for nesting box camera
I'm thinking of getting my daughter a camera for her birdhouse but have no idea where to begin or how much they cost. I think she'd like one where she could watch on her I-phone or I-pad. This spring she had baby chickadees for the first time but couldn't really get to see them or the parents from her living room window.
Thanks in advance for any help.

(50,560 posts)Youd need one with really close focusing, and youd need to run electricity out to the tree to keep it running. They have nanny cams with night vision, which youd need in the birdhouse.
