Smart Bird Feeder with Camera Outdoor: Solar Birdfeeder Cam for Outside Garden - 2K HD Live Video Camera AI Recognition Visible Window Auto Capture - Bird Lover Gifts

Reviewing after using for about 3 months. Video quality: I took a star off bc the image quality could be better, but for the low price I can’t really complain. The video is good enough to see and ID the birds, but colors are sometimes distorted and images aren’t very crisp. I’ve had the best luck with keeping it in a shady area, pointed away from the sun/sky so the birds aren’t backlit- mine is pointed into a corner of the yard where there’s a tangle of branches the birds love (being in a protected spot attracts more birds as well). Sound is very distorted- everything sounds much deeper than reality, so not good for ID via sound. Not a big deal to me. Ease of use: Overall easy to setup and connect to WiFi. The solar panel works great and I’ve never needed to charge it indoors since the initial use. App wasn’t too difficult to figure out, and I appreciate that you can use it without subscribing to a service. Videos are saved for 30 days even without paying for storage, for me that’s plenty of time to download anything I want to keep. I don’t care about the AI service for ID- there are only a few birds that visit feeders in my yard and I already recognize them. I recommend Merlin or iNaturalist if you need help with ID. What the birds think: It took a couple of weeks to find the right place in the yard and for birds to find it, but since then we get a steady stream of birds all day! House finches like the seed tray, sparrows go for the seeds and the suet ball, and warblers love the nectar cup (hummingbirds have zero interest but visit my regular hummingbird feeders).

I just finished setting this up and I am very pleased so far. Minor assembly, app installation, and Wi-Fi setup was easy. I placed mine on a metal pole which is made for bird houses and feeders. The bird feeder comes with lots of mounting options for your particular situation. Was excited to see that I had a bird visit right after I went back inside! The picture and video quality is very good. I placed mine where it captures my driveway and the street so it doubles as a security camera too. I’ve been wanting to buy something like this for years and I’m glad I finally did. Go ahead and buy it!

I love my new bird feeder. I like to watch the birds and the squirrels eat. They actually take turns eating. The food automatically pours out. It’s a white flap incase you want to close it and not have food come out. My job is to just keep the feeder full everyday. But since it’s a bird feeder it has an option for you to use The Bird Fan feature, that actually air you to know what type of bird is at the feeder eating. You just click on the bird image on the motion clip and you can read all about that type of bird. That was very kool. Now I learned that a lot of these tiny birds I’m seeing are called House Sparrows. I placed my feeder under a table because I have about 3 or more hawks flying around here. Underneath a table is best for these birds and squirrels so they can safety enjoy a meal sometimes. If a dog or cat shows up the camera will notify my phone that a pet showed up. How kool is that. This camera doesn’t just work for pets and birds either, you can also get package , people and vehicles alerts that are very detailed too. So that was a good addition. The feeder is attractive too, sometimes people don’t want just a camera outside of their home which makes it’s obviously that you’re watching everyone that passes by. With this bird feeder camera it looks like you’re just watching birds so in a way it can be discreet . Setup was very easy just install the app and follow directions from there. Also, Before you attempt to try and pry open the case holding the camera DON’T do not try to remove the camera from it, instead take your finger and push the camera downwards and open the white flap up top and you will see the on/off button, memory card slot etc. Now you can setup the camera directly from the closed case. And the back of the bird house you will see a white cord hanging out that looks like a tail you can place the cord from the Solar Panel right inside of that cord. It’s water proof that’s why it has the rubber covering on the cord. It has another white flap on the front of the bird feeder and that’s when your bird feeder is closed so no food will pour out. The chimney unscrews and that’s how you fill the feeder with bird seeds. Use a funnel if you need to. The white sphere ball is optional because some people like to buy bird food that’s in a ball shape and they eat through that or maybe it’s for stuffing bread or something in it too but you just screw it’s on the bird feeder. I believe the flower is a water bowl and the clear trays could be used as a water bowl too. I guess the clear clip looking pieces are for you to put sliced fruit on it. The green screws are for the green circular piece that screws on the bottom of the bird feeder in case you want to screw the bird feeder onto a pole. The L shaped green part is the bracket if you want to screw it onto a wooden post or tree, etc. So they have many different ways you can install it which was a genius idea. I actually have mines sitting on the ground and I placed a heavy brick inside the L shaped bracket to hold it down because I chose not to allow the hawks to see them eating but if your neighbor don’t really have hawks then hang it up higher. It looks like it will be easy to keep clean too. The camera will show images and videos crisp clear and bright. f your WiFi connection is not performing well enough for 2k a message will appear and suggest you connect to sd speed instead . I think this makes the outside of a home look extra attractive and feeding the wildlife shows that you care.

This feeder has actually surprised me. My mom's been using it since the first of the year and it's still working perfectly. The feeder was easy to install. That app was easy to install. The camera images are nice and sharp. It has a speaker and a mic that works great. I can log into it anytime I want and see a live video out in front of it. I've actually used it to communicate my mom when she's in front of it. 😆 The bracket is a little flimsy but, for the price it's been great bird feeder camera or as my mom says a great spy camera.

I have had this camera for over a year and never had issues. Recently, it had an update and that caused my camera to disconnect. Every time I tried to reconnect it, it would fail. So I decided to delete it completely and reconnect the entire device. Now when I try to connect the device, I can only get to the screen where it find the camera and then the entire app freezes. It just sits there then kicks me out and proceeds to do the same thing over and over. I tried chatting with the customer support on the app and first of all that took so long for them to reply. They then asked me to send them a video of the issue, which is the fact that the app freezes and does not let me add the camera and they told me that they would share it with their team and get back to me, but then they proceeded to close the chat. The issue is still not resolved and I still cannot connect my camera so I can’t see when birds come to it. They truly need a much better app. Very frustrated!
