Hi

I am not sure this is the correct forum.  
But i need some info on mounting a camera in a bluebird box.

The box is a home made one my son worked on for a project almost 15 yrs ago.  
I have a blink camera and was looking at our box and don't think it will work..

The box from the top of the roof to bottom of the floor looks to
be 8.5 in...so I am not sure if that is enough room for the camera being mounted on the roof?

Any other camera options?

thanks

Welcome to NSN. note that you can not cut and paste formatted text without it looking like HTML code as you can see. It makes it hard to read. I hope others in the forum can help you with your remote camera mounting question.

Maybe a camera like this would be more compact. There are others available online.

Thanks.  
This looks interesting but battery options look like recharging or a using an SD card.

I like the Blink option as it take 2 AA lithium batteries that last a long time.
I could test and replace them each year.

This video Blink in bird house shows the setup, but i may need a Bluebird Box that is taller than my current 8.5 in one
