How to make a simple Black and White Nest Camera:

Materials:

Even thought the camera is a colour one, the low light levels in the nest box will cause the Infra red LEDS (lights) to come on giving a black and white picture. On some cameras the infra red lights are permanently on. If you really want colour then here are some details of how to do that with but it's a more complex job.

Construction:

Recording

To record the nest box video just connect the A/V (audio/vidoe) connector into the back of a VHS recorder or better a DVD recorder. Better again use a DVD recorder with built in hard disk - then you can save just the interesting bits and record those to DVD later.
