Out of interest, do you mean, actually in a birdhouse, and if so, how is
it lit? Is a birdhouse a nestbox? Or something like a pidgeon house? Are
you hard-wiring the network or using wifi?
I'm curious because I gave up trying to do this. I did have a USB webcam
in an owl box (caught a squirrel litter being born) and on nesting boxes
but I had lots of problems with false positives and trying to tweak
sensitivity.
Sorry I can't help with your question but it sounds an interesting project.

Yes it will be installed in a nestbox for common swifts at a friends
house. In fact we already have one working but the framerate is low
(raspberry pi zero) and we need a PC for streaming (OBS Studio). Here
is the stream, if you're lucky it is working:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hC7_09NgACQ
It will be lit with an IR LED with a 3D printed cover to soften the
light. And it'll be connected with WiFi. The nestboxes are attached to
the house and we found out that the access point needs to be placed
quite close.

Let's start from upgrading to the latest 4.3.1 and capturing a log with -d 7
If you are familiar with gdb would be great to the backtrace of the crash
