High Tech Owl Watching! PDF Print E-mail

Thanks to the genius of our "IT guy," we have some high tech owl cams set up on our Great Horned Owl site. With the expert help of "Nest Builder," our trusty Site Foreman and guy-who-can-do-everything (Ron Biel), IT guy was able to get his new camera system installed and the old side-view camera better positioned.

Here is the new camera system (wtth two cameras in one box) showing the top view (colour in day, HD black and white at night). The other, side view camera, is shown on the pole to the bottom left.

 


Here is Nest Builder (Ron Biel) up at the owl nest, helping get the new camera system in place.

 

IT guy and Nest Builder were able to position the cameras using a laptop up at the nest. Notice the bones from mammals fed to last year's young!

The owls have been hooting up a storm and we hope that they will start nesting in earnest any day now! Stay tuned!
