Birdfy Debuts Camera-Equipped Bird Bath and Multi-Camera Bird Feeder

[MacRumors]

Birdfy, a company that makes smart cameras for bird watching, today introduced several updated products that give bird lovers new, more advanced views of the birds in their yard.

The Birdfy Feeder 2 Duo is an upgrade to the current Birdfy feeder options, offering a three-lens camera setup that can capture visiting birds from multiple angles, rather than just a single angle. The Birdfy camera connects to Wi-Fi and images that are captured are sent to an iPhone app for viewing anywhere. The app is able to identify and catalog different bird species, providing real-time notifications when there are visits.

There's a dual-lens front camera able to capture wide-angle views and bird portraits, and a side camera that provides another angle. The cameras offer 1080p quality with auto-tracking and full color night vision.

Birdfy's new multi-camera feeder is made from recycled ABS plastic for durability, and it has a solar panel that allows it to be placed anywhere in the yard without needing to be regularly recharged. IP66 waterproofing keeps it safe even in rain.

There's also a Birdfy Bath Pro, which provides a water source for birds while also capturing images of birds bathing and playing. There's a wide-angle camera that can take photos and video clips, and the lens is able to zoom in to take close-up portraits. An integrated solar panel allows for a continuous power source, and there's an optional stand that can be purchased.

For hummingbird fans, there's a new Hum Feeder, a more compact, lightweight, and affordable version of the company's original hummingbird feeder. The Hum Feeder has a flower-shaped design with a swivel feeding port, a 14oz nectar capacity, and a built-in 1080p camera.

The Birdfy Feeder 2 Duo is priced at $360 and it is available for pre-order now. It is set to be delivered to customers starting on January 22. The Birdfy Bath Pro is priced at $200, and it is also available for pre-order with orders set to arrive in March 2025.

I for one welcome the sites transition to BirbRumours.com - I’ve had a little Bullfinch visit my garden over the last few days and I’m excited to see more of him.

This might be for wannabe bird lovers. Real bird lovers know that bird feeders encourage the spreading of disease (among other negatives) by drawing large numbers of birds to a single location.

A bird feeder for $360? This company is Robin you blind.

It's such a niche product. How long will they be around for? Buyers may Egret their purchase.

Well, that would certainly be unpheasant.

Oh, for flock sake.

Oh, for flock's sake.

Sorry. Owl stop.

 

[Shirasaki]

Yeah I am sure bird will prefer this “artificial sanctuary” over any number of trees in the natural environment.

This bird feeder may be suitable for finches or sparrows. The parrots and ravens in my backyard would dismantle it in no time.

And @tw1tcher is right, the price is stupid.

 

[red elma]

cameras covered in **** before you even get a glimpse...

 

[Plutonius]

Where's the privacy for squirrels raiding your feeder .

So basically a future wasp’s nest with a live camera

 

[JapanApple]

squirrels in other small animals can easily get out the seeds. Not efficient for prevention. Design is quite bad

[spazzcat]

Now you can get even more angles of squirrels eating your bird food.

 

[wbeasley]

Sorry. Owl stop.

you're a hoot hoot

 

[wbeasley]

$360?

whack a battery powered wifi security cam in front of a bowl or water and a seed feeder...

 

[wbeasley]

a lot of church clergy are worried

install these in playgrounds and a lot of peckers might be caught interfering with kiddies... so maybe the cams do have a legit purpose.

 

[Haiku_Oezu]

Sorry. Owl stop.

Now that’s just fowl play

 

[Amiriteoramirite]

I agree with those who say birdbaths can spread canarial diseases like chirpese.

 

[Lioness~]

Some birds might get a taste for hotells instead of the eating and sleeping in the park.

 

[unQuestionable]

This would be dope if I could set the feed as my Apple TV screen saver.
