Birds Walking Down

Birds Walking Down

For birdwatchers and people who enjoy seeing wild birds live well. There are videos that will help you identify different bird species that live and migrate through the Eastern United States. There are also videos of birdhouse building and design considerations. I'll also have tips and suggestions how to capture video and photos of wild birds.

A couple years ago I wanted to get back into woodworking, and thought I'd try to build a birdhouse, which I did. I put it on my bookshelf not really thinking past building it. ;). But after a few months it finally made it outside. And since I also like photography, I put a wireless camera inside the birdhouse. To my surprise birds were checking out the house immediately. And seeing the videos from inside the house was exciting. Now I know those birds were Carolina Chickadees and Eastern Bluebirds. Since then I've been customizing my birdhouses with 3D printed camera shelfs ;)

    One of the best videos I've seen. I have a nest box with a Blink camera and the clarity is not near as good. The only available light is through the entrance hole. I suspect that is why the video is not sharp. The light in this video stays very consistent. Is there an additional light source other than the hole?

  • @BirdsWalkingDown
    @BirdsWalkingDownКүн бұрын

    Yes I have 2 doors, the smaller top door is 3D printer with transparent PETG which lets light in without being clear. And gives access to the camera batteries. You can see details here birdhouse.walkingdown.com

    Loved this video! I had no idea that when they fledged they were still dependent on their parents for food! I do know that directly after they fledge it’s usually no where near their nest. I see the mom & dad flying deep into the tree line with a mouthful of live mealworms we leave out for them. Now I know why mom and dad are so busy!! Thank you so much!!

    I had one visit my balcony today (much to my indoor cat's delight) and thought it was a juvenile blue jay by its screechy squawk and the tufted head but I know there is a family of these nearby because I hear them whistle daily. They seem to have taken over where my beloved wood thrush once was... I miss their songs but this little titmouse family is entertaining.

    I really enjoyed this thank you. I buy a couple of boston fern hanging baskets every spring to hag on the porch. Last yr I left the ones I had hanging as I figured for winter interest-rather then empty space and wasn't hurting anyone. I had seen a small finch going into the hanging basket 2 times at beginning of spring and I thought maybe he was eating some bud or something as they were all dried out etc. I went to remove the hanging basket and saw the finch watching me on the edge of the roof and I saw the tiniest nest in there, in the dried out dead fern with the tiniest blue eggs-3 of them, size of jellybeans. I was shocked and it all happened so quickly, I immediately hanged it back up. I fet so bad taking it off-I was in shock and quickly put in back and then went in the house so to encourage the mother to go back and everything ok. I figured she was watching me as I looked and scanned around and did not see her but went I went into the house-saw her go in the basket-I hope i put it back in right direction ...don't know what direction but i just hung it back. I'll just keep my new hanging ferns on the steps. How amazing.
