CCTV / Wildlife camera

I started this forum for any collecting hobby and it turned into my camera collecting and using forum. I use it mostly to keep a record of my photo adventures. Nobody but me seems to have photo adventures that visit here....but however. I have so many cameras now that I forget which is which and which ones work and which ones don't. If you have cameras and adventures you would be welcome to post here.

Spotted last night on the Webcam. Not a mutant but two owls - hopefully the parents of this years brood grooming each other by the looks of it.
Nice to know they are still around :D :D

The Owls are now sitting in the nestbox that I made.
Top image is Mrs looking out just before emerging to see if Mr had left any food on the ledge. He had not but she came out, had a stretch and then bottom image, went back in.

I do wish I could find a CCTV that has a zoom lens and is Ethernet cable connectable, I am sure I could get some great shots.

By the way, a Blackbird is nesting in a cavity in the wall just below the camera. Hope the Owls don't eat the Blackbirds chicks :shock:

Here are two from last night.

We THINK it is the male feeding the female who then returned to the nest box.....
