Hi
After some advice please,
we have several local schools come to the university and make use of our nature pond for dipping. I'm looking into setting up some nest boxes and fitting cameras to stream footage so these school children can keep track of whats going on.
I know it's old hat but things move slowly in the education world, I may even get a budget to but them with
Anyone got any recommendations for which makes to go for, seen several in the back of the WWT magazine but thought I'd ask here.
Thanks
Paul.

Try eBay & do a search on Wireless Camera (Look for the infra red type, they are very cheap but do a great job)
You will see that there are loads from Hong Kong, some have a range of 500yards or more. We have orders a few from there & the results are brilliant especially if the receiver is plugged direct into the TV. (Look at their ratings & be sure you use Paypal for payment for protection)
I hope this is of help

Thanks for the tip Vincent, I'll have a look there, expect if the firm are paying I'll have to find a UK source, but if I end up buying it'll be ebay.

This is something I deal with for a living, so I'll send you an email.
