I’ve got the Netvue Birdfy with built-in AI detection and a solar panel. If you don’t get the AI version, you have to pay a subscription for that feature.
It’s mounted to a huge tripod meant for studio lighting, and I just installed a squirrel baffle under it. The feeder is about 8 or 9 ft in the air.
It’s awesome to watch them live, or to just replay a bunch of captures at the end of the day. Cardinals are out at 5:30am, and the last birds (also often a Cardinals pair) are usually at the feeder just before sunset (around 8:30pm EST these days).
We had a family of house finch visiting and had 4 or 5 of them at the feeder at one time 😂 All those baby birds!
I’ve got a birdfeeder with a camera that will alert me when it identifies birds. Chipping Sparrows are at it all the time! Super cute little ones!
What do you use? What is your setup like?

Here’s a Chipping Sparrow from earlier today:
We had a lot of house sparrows visit, too.
