Never mind! I copied and pasted FAQ's in case someone else thinks the same thing I did----it's infrared light and doesn't bother her. Guess I can go to sleep now. Listen, I know I fly off the handle--nothing new----it's just that I CARE---with all my heart, I CARE. Ask Little White-Foot Mouse who lives in the woodpile on the deck, just outside the window. Right now she's getting up dropped seed from the feeder---she knows I see her, but she goes on with her work. I respect her work ethic. ************************* What kind of cameras and lighting are used? The cameras are Logitech Orbit AF (daytime) and Agama V-1325 R (infrared, nighttime). There are 4 infrared (IR) LEDs on the camera that are invisible to owls and humans, but allow the camera to pick up an image we can see at night. There is also ambient light from the neighborhood that comes into the box at night. Is this camera hardwired, battery operated, or solar powered? ItÂs hardwired. Can the night cam zoom in? No, only the daytime camera has zoom and is height-adjustable. The infrared camera is positioned lower and gives a different view of the nest. Does the light at night annoy Molly? There is some ambient light from the neighborhood, but there are no extra lights used at night. Molly doesnÂt seem to mind. Are the cameras actually inside the box? No, they are attached to the exterior of the house with a protective cover.

I've posted a couple videos of the fledging. They flew on Dec. 8 & 10th. The first one is kinda long but has lots of interaction. --> 1st Chick --> 2nd Chick

Lisa - thanks for the play-by-play. Your little Hussy sounds like such a character! Congrats on the five new blues!

Bird box nest camera. Mine is a "birdhouse Spy Cam" or "Night Owl Nature Cam" I can't believe how much I have been missing! Tonight was the first night without Mom in the box and they are all huddled up together, when one baby moves they all move like they were glued together, they move like one little ball of feathers...ok everybody go left....ok now right..nope back to the left! Once in awhile one will pop out of the huddle to stretch then dive right back in the middle. This is too much fun!
