In one box I have the Hawkeye Nature Cam. I don’t recommend it because it is
not of high quality but it is relatively cheap.
In the other box I have the Hawkeye High Definition Nature Cam. This gives me a
clear picture.
The cameras have built-in infrared lamps which give enough light to illuminate
the box while not disturbing the ducks.

The camera comes with 100’ of cable which I plug into a small HDTV.

John,
What kind of cameras do you use in your boxes? How do you get enough light so
the cameras pick up enough detail? I mostly get Hooded Mergansers but
occasionally get Wood Ducks as well...I almost never see the ducklings though
and if I do, it is only for a couple of days. The mergansers hang with their
ducklings for a couple of weeks and then leave them on their own. I have
another wood duck box that is used by Kestrels...that would be an interesting
box to have a camera in as well. Thanks for any info you can provide.

Our first batch of wood ducks is hatching today. Should jump tomorrow.
Another hen is still sitting on hers in the second box.
I have video cameras in each box.
