Dahua Cam for bird feeder

[Hound Dog 911]

Well here is my wife's mother's day gift. She has been wanting a bird/ squirrel feeder for the last 2 years and her and her sister gaudy them up as much as possible. I want a cam to setup on it for the wife eventually. Any recommendations? Night performance not required.

True that! I like the price on the dahua. It's a brighter part of the property and appreciate the recommendations.

 

[Hound Dog 911]

They found it quick.

I'm amazed to see Dahua 4MP cams for $50. They are a great choice for something like this.

Heck yeah. I'm getting one. It will be perfect for this project.

Yeah auto tracking pulled me away. Brought it back up. My ac is running in the background.

Nice shot of the pileated woodpecker. I've been trying to get a photo of one for several years.

Haven't seen him since that day. 7 squirrels on it today. She's busy.

Squirrels and chipmunks are the reason I don’t fill up the feeders in summer. They can empty a feeder in a couple of hours. I have a caged suet feeder for woodpeckers and thistle seed soxs for finches.

 

[Hound Dog 911]

The squirrels don't bother me. It's nice to see them all getting along. Heck, squirrel season will be in after the summer if they get on my nerves to much. They will be fat and ready for squirrel pot pie. Lol

This guy was also fast at emptying my feeders!

Very nice! I was testing a new game cam and put it up in my backyard one evening. The next morning I had a big gobbler strutting through my yard. It was weird being I live in a pretty residential area for my town.

I have one Hikvision camera for my backyard. We have about 2 dozen turkeys go through the back yard every day. I like to watch the Tom’s when they fan their tails and do the Turkey strut.

 

[Hound Dog 911]

Yeah. I only got out once for spring gobbler. No luck. Nothing talking at all. They are fun to watch.

Waiting on the invoice from Andy. Ordering 2 of the 4mp all metal upgradeable fw version Dahua cams. Staying true to Andy.

Sorry for the AC compressor noise. That mic is sensitive. May move it a little when I do some IR lighting enhancements around the backyard.
