Spring must be on the way folks!!!!
One of the first signs of spring is when I begin to show you all my tits
Following the success of last years stream from my birdbox, I've got everything setup again for this year.
I've had the box down to clean it out and fitted a new plastic roof. The idea behind this was to allow more light in during the day so that the camera works in colour. Last year the stream was in black and white by infra red due to the camera getting insufficiant light.
I hope the increased light doesn't deter the blue tits, but I still have the original roof it appears this is the case.
The box had it's first visit this morning so I thought I'd start this thread and include a link to a clip of the first blue tit having a look around.
The plastic roof worked as you can see the bird in colour.
I have also moved the camera from the back to the side. This has got rid of the blind spot below the camera.
I also intend to add a small tut as to how I've set everything up in case anyone wants to do their own stream.
The stream has the same address as last year and can be seen here.

At the time of starting this thread the stream is offline as there is no activity in the birdbox, but I will start the stream when nesting begins and leave it live for you all to follow the progress.
Happy viewing and I hope to see some of you in the streams chatroom again.
