This solar panel smart bird feeder with camera was added to my home garden in early December 2024. I have not had any issues with the feeder since that time.
What I like most about the feeder is the ability to watch the birds that arrive LIVE and record if I want. I also can remove the SD card to get the large images and video that have been saved. If you have a paid subscription you can upload from the cloud but I prefer to use the device with the easy to use app for my iphone.
About the Smart Bird Feeder with Wifi
Introducing a Bird Feeder with a Camera that Features AI for Bird Species Identification. This Smart Birdhouse comes equipped with a solar panel, offering 2K live video streaming and instant arrival notifications.
- The bird camera automatically captures incoming birds and records videos of them as they enter the detection area. You’ll receive instant notifications on your phone, complete with high-resolution snapshots.
- The motion-activated bird camera feeder features a 120° wide-angle lens and 1080p resolution, allowing you to clearly observe a variety of birds both during the day and at night. The built-in 3X magnification captures intricate details, including their vibrant feathers. With a 2L large-capacity feeder, you won’t have to refill birdseed often. Additionally, the IP65 waterproof funnel design ensures that the birds can enjoy their dry food without worry.
- There is a paid subscription option but so far I have been using the ‘free’ app to view my images and videos on the SD card that is in the feeder.
- Super easy to add bird food to this feeder with out having to take the unit down off of the arbor.
- NO BATTERIES needed even though they are in the device. I use the solar panels to charge the battery and it has worked perfect even during the winter season with little sunshine.
Smart Bird Feeder Highlights
I have had a squirrel visit the feeder twice in the last 6 months. When I get the alert on my mobile app I can view what is at the feeder. It is easy to turn on the live camera to see what the squirrel is up to. There is an ALERT alarm you can activate that works perfect to scare the squirrel away. I have only had to use the alarm once on each encounter. The critter doesn’t mind my voice when I use the live microphone however the alert alarm does that trick!
The birdwatching feature on this device captivated me throughout the winter months. It’s a true joy to see all the new birds that come to the feeder, made even better by the camera that captures both images and videos. I relish watching the birds change their colors as they move from spring into summer.
The most notable visitor recently was a raccoon that showed up a few nights ago. Fortunately, the feeder and the large trellis it is connected to sustained no damage. I’m quite surprised the raccoon managed to avoid breaking either the feeder or the solar panel. Now, I need to find a way to deter this critter, as it tends to arrive between midnight and 5 a.m., a time when my bird feeder notifications are turned off. I’m considering using hot pepper seeds to keep the raccoon at bay. I wonder if it will be as effective on this animal as it is with squirrels.
The video about was my first edited video to share online. It was super easy to get the images and videos off of the HD card in the wifi smart feeder. You can also download the high resolution videos from the app.
