The BirdCam has been designed to offer a balance of mounting
flexibility and ease of setup. There are several easy ways to mount the
BirdCam. With some ingenuity, you should be able to aim the BirdCam
almost anywhere a bird will land.
Important Mounting Considerations:
•
The BirdCam needs sufficient daylight to function. It will not
operate properly in a dark situation (e.g. – inside a nest box).
•
When mounted, the BirdCam should not move (e.g. – do not
'hang' the BirdCam).
•
Position the BirdCam so there is no obstruction – like branches
or leaves – between the BirdCam and its target.
•
Remember, unlike bird feeders, the BirdCam does NOT need
to be mounted where you can see it. It watches birds when
(and where) you cannot.
•
Think about image composition. Frame your shot. Position the
BirdCam so the background is appealing.
•
Consider the sun's position. Images will look better if the
BirdCam is positioned between the sun and the target.
