Wildlife webcams


To view some live wildlife action click on the links below.  If you wish to get started with your own webcam, why not put up a bird box and install a camera to watch the nesting season in your own back garden?  For advice go to the following site: www.beautifulbritain.co.uk

 

  • The i-Catcher console site is a great resource (however these take time to start up and may not always be available): bird table 1, bird table 1 ('close')bird table 2 (see images below), owlcam, and roofcam (for perching owls) webcams - high quality cameras by dedicated bird lovers.  Exceptional footage of past visitors can be seen by selecting the playback option for each camera and reviewing the previous footage.  To do this click on the red activity time line to change to different times of the day.   Be patient with the controls.  A very addictive past time!

  • Bigg's bird nest boxes and bird feeders (Available after breakfast UK time!) :- in summer their cameras are trained on nest boxes - totally addictive highlight of the web. For now its their feeders (during daylight hours).  Visit the Bigg Bird Forum for friendly bird and wildlife chat and images.
 

 
 
  • My Forest Home - a great site with a number of garden wildlife webcams.
  • Andrew Coopers site has a number of webcams watching badgers, birds and even a water but all on his Church Farm.
  • Offwell Woodland & Wildlife Trust have a webcam pointing a badger set - good luck with this one!
  • The RSPB webcams provide snapshots of a number of their bird feeders.
  • The Scottish Wildlife Trust has a very good webcam in the Montrose Basin which can see the town, bird tables and the estuary.  What's more is you can control it yourself!  This has drawbacks when other people get carried away...
  • Gardening for Wildlife have a webcam looking at a bird feeding station.
  • UKGardenWildife have a webcam watching a bird table.
