![]() ![]() My female blackbird often foxes the camera, and it usually insists it's a redstart. It has to be said, the AI detection is far from flawless. It turned out the background was important, and I moved it away from any sun glare and the postcards were soon coming in thick and fast. And then I was noticing birds were being missed. Any new feeder will spook birds to start with, so it took a couple of weeks for them to trust it. ![]() It did take me a while to get things working properly. There's also a solar panel available, and this seems like a good idea, because the camera's battery lasts less than a week on a busy feeding station, and it takes a long time to charge - so keeping it topped up will be a bonus.Ī basic starter pack costs around £200, and there's a fairly long waiting time, but it's beautifully packaged and made, and accessories include a handy scoop for filling the seed hopper. The Bird Buddy can be hung from a tree, wall-mounted, or mounted on a post, and there are accessories available to attract birds, such as a water feeder, a suet ball holder and a fruit holder. I wouldn't have spotted it if it wasn't for the Bird Buddy, but now I have a video and a cluster of pictures of this stunning bird. ![]()
