Great idea. We are trying to come up with a solution so the crows can eat and the cats can’t sneak up on them. Can’t wait to build a feeder like this one! But we don’t use kill traps for mice or rats, we use non-lethal traps that are cheap and work every time. We just take them to the edge of the woods and let them go. Of course mouse-proofing is a better idea since they’re food-driven. They make metal cans with lids to hold bags of bird food, and mice can’t access them.
I drive a short piece of pipe (about 1 foot /30 cm long) into the earth. Pull it out and stick the long pipe (with feeder) into the hole. Thanks for watching.
This is an awesome idea! Oh and great idea with the mouse! And field camera.totally gave me an idea and I'm going to go put mine out right when I'm done! lol.
I've just installed two bird feeders in the backyard and would love to record all the birds that visit. Would you mind sharing a link to the action camera you purchased? Was it from Amazon? Thanks!
Yes, Amazon item B07B2W96JH. Dragon Touch 4K Action Camera 16MP Vision 3 Underwater Waterproof Camera PC Webcam 170° Wide Angle WiFi Sports Cam with Remote 2 Batteries and Mounting Accessories Kit. Thanks and good luck! Oh- buy extra batteries!
The Game Camera triggered itself when it detected motion. The Action camera I had plugged into a charger (on a long extension cord) and let it record for several hours. Then I edited all that footage to get the good shots. I wish it had a trigger!
Nice I would like this but you have to clean the feeder if the seed gets wet would cause bacteria and another reason those house finches can break the seed husk and eat the inside and the husks on the feeder or on the ground can cause harmful bacteria and also the edit was fixing something so don't mind that

These american birds look so exotic, the Cardinal hen is beautiful. Good work, you've inspired me to have a good at a DIY camera mount. Thank you
Thanks very much for your comment. We love the Cardinal, they're such a bright bird.

I'm so glad to see this idea. I have long wanted to make a feeder that would house my trail cam. Thank you!
Glad you like it.
I love the rooster in the background.
We enjoyed the rooster being around. It eventually went back to the hen house. Thanks for watching and posting!
great video how did you get the pole to stay in the ground? thanks...

Just noticed your comment. Good luck your project - hope you get some awesome photos.

There’s definitely a pecking order and the blue jays are the kings and queens
My blue jays think they're on top but the crows say otherwise!
I was gonna say, doesn't seem to matter where you live - blue jays are beautiful arseholes lol.

How you trigger button on that camara? WiFi or remote?

Nice Video. Thank you
Thank you for your comment!
So just curious but about how long does the batteries last in either camera? Thanks
Good question! The game camera will go for days. The Action Camera, maybe a couple of hours.
@@southernrrman Thanks for the info
I got an additional Ring camera to watch the birds.
That's a great idea!
loved this video!!!!
really makes me want to set up something similar. You made it look so easy!!!
@@amalrashid6682 You should go for it! It was lots of fun.

Yes you are right. If we feed the birds we must insure we are not doing harm at the same time. This was a special feeder built just for the video.
Good that you know
This si so cool.
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it.
