Birdie-cam is deployed! But unfortunately the birdies have yet to show up. It’s still too early for them to arrive, but now we’re ready. Each year some finches build a nest on top of outdoor speakers that we have on our portale. For a long time I’ve wanted some way to watch without disturbing. A couple weeks ago I became aware of a small single board computer and webcam that can be built into a “spy cam.” This is the Raspberry Pi. The build and configure process took some research, so I put the experience together as a recipe in the Raspberry Pi Projects Page.
