  1. HI folks, I just replaced our letterbox and I'd like to know if I could turn the old one into a bird house/ nest box to put in the back yard. It's all wood with a mail slot 3cm wide in the front and a door in the back. Pictured below (I put the penguin statue in front of it to cover our house numbers).

    The main compartment is about 20cm wide by 35 cm deep. Height is 20cm on the low side and 35 cm on the high side.

    Anyone know what kind of birds might like this as a next box, possibly with a little modification.

    We're in Lower Hutt, New Zealand. Birds I've spotted in the garden include: house sparrow, blackbird, starling, song thrush, silvereye/tauhou, fantail/pīwakawaka, kererū, tui. (Also chaffinch, greenfinch & goldfinch but they seem highly seasonal)

    I know blackbirds, house sparrows, and starlings already nest in our garden sometimes.

  16. A question for birdwatching friends who are also nerds:

    I want to get a birdhouse cam. We have built birdhouses and would like to see what’s happening inside without interfering at all.

    What cam would you get that can be properly secured, connects wirelessly on a secure local network (not streaming, no internet), doesn’t require changing batteries (disturbing the nest) and can be plugged in to a source of electricity. The birdhouse is attached to a barn with power and wifi. Will be purchased from source in Canada.

    Advice very much appreciated!
