They’re so difficult to keep away! Thanks for the enjoyable reviews. Also, I laughed when you said “grr” for squirrels. I’m hoping that having some form of always-watching bird camera will help me capture more birds, and keep track of them. And the past few months, I’ve seen a few yellow-yellow birds but, sadly, they’ve been too quick to capture. The product includes a feeder, a camera, an app. Night vision is cool but, are birds really out at night? Not usually…? I really appreciated watching your video compilation! Oh, and over the past few years, I saw my first Rose-Breasted Grosbeak and they’re so distinctive. The Netvue Birdfy AI Smart Bird Feeder is, like the Bird Buddy, a complete set for feeding and recording birds. For me, the most important part is the accurate motion detection. Then I see this review where you very effectively use an inexpensive Blink camera to take some fun video and, honestly, I’d rather have no AI than bad AI. But I’m also a -little- worried that the AI is going to be just as bad as Netvue. There was a lot standing in their way after the crowdfunding wrapped - covid, supply chain issues, manufacturing issues etc. I still don’t have the Bird Buddy products I ordered, so I’m hoping that the delays will be worth it. The Bird Buddy team handled this whole thing beautifully. Last year, I invested in an Indiegogo project Bird Buddy, which is very similar to the Netvue Birdfy Feeder Cam you had reviewed. 02:16 - Source: CNN Top business news 16. I love the fact that there are so many ways to approach a problem. The inventors of the Bird Buddy hope their smart bird feeder will expand the bird watching community and help conservationists at the same time. The outdoor version of the Blink camera is designed to be placed outdoors and is weather and water-resistant which makes it the perfect birdwatching camera. Check out my Blink security camera review for more info.Īs I mentioned, the Blink cameras are small, battery-powered, and wireless. If you aren’t familiar with Blink cameras, they are small wireless battery-powered security cameras that you can put anywhere inside your home and they will capture video clips when motion is triggered. I wanted something that would take the pictures for me and I found a great solution. It utilizes an AI database that helps identify the birds. That way I wouldn’t have to stand around all day waiting for the birds to show up so I could take thier picture. In short: The Bird Buddy is a bird feeder outfitted with a wireless camera that makes capturing your feathered friends easier than ever. But after checking prices, my brain came up with another idea to repurpose the gear I already have to create an automatic birdwatching camera. I started thinking about buying a better camera with a telephoto lens just so I could get better bird pics. Then early the next morning I was lucky to see this little guy and again, I captured a quick grainy shot of a Yellow-breasted Chat with my iPhone.
