Today we installed our new bird box which has a colour IR camera. The camera and cabling was supplied through the Derbyshire Schools Birdcam Project. Rather than disturbing the B&W camera setup in our existing nest box, Gardenature kindly sent us an additional box more suited for a colour camera (it has additional side windows covered in perspex).

The box is attached to the north east facing side of the school building, about 3m above the ground and faces a wooded area and the school pond.
