At last an update

Sorry all for the delay in updating.  However it's been fairly quiet in the garden (except for the birds eating huge amounts of food) plus it won't stop raining which causes problems with the cameras.

I've been playing about with the cameras and now have sound on the outside camera plus I have set up a mini camera inside the hedgehog feeding station.  The mini camera has only been out a couple of times as the 20 metre cable for it is too short and this has resulted in it having to be taped across the car park which is not ideal.  A new 50 metre cable has arrived so I can now play about with the best position for the camera.

Below is the first footage taken inside the feeding station.


As you can tell the camera and IR lights are round.  I'm going to move the camera to different parts of the box to see if I can get a better view.  The longer cable will enable this to be done. 

As you can also see Mrs Hog is now fairly large.

Below is the outside camera now with sound.  You will see Mrs Hog eating from the fox food bowls and then another (suspect male) hog arrives. She doesn't exactly welcome him.  The sound makes the video sequence more interesting.
