My photo
I keep and breed a small number of Australian grass parakeets. This blog provides information and pictures of my birds and a log of their breeding activities. It is also a photo blog of landscapes and wildlife. My dog Buster may also make an appearance. For Nest Box Live - click the link above or visit my website!

Nest box camera

As you will have seen on 'nest box live' I'm trying out a new nest box this year.  It's horizontal rather than vertical with a wireless camera mounted to the side.


It doesn't have 'windows' like my other box with camera (below) and therefore relies only on infra red., but the angle gives a good picture without excessive brightness from the infra red light.

Vertical box with 'windows'

The turqs are nesting in the horizontal box and the bourkes in the vertical box.
