For several years we have used a video camera (actually more of a =
security
camera) at our home in northern Minnesota to watch the progress of the
Phoebe nests that are built on the side of our house. This year the =
camera
died so I am asking if anyone has a lead on where to purchase a =
replacement.
Here are the features that the old one had and that I would like to get =
in
the replacement camera.
=20
- Color and video
- Can be viewed on a TV set (we run a cable from the camera to =
the
TV set)
- Doesn't need recording capability, we only use it for =
watching
the nest
- Doesn't need a constant source of electrical power. This is
important for us because our home is off the electrical grid. We =
produce
our own electricity with solar panels and a wind turbine. To conserve
energy we need to avoid electrical appliances that draw power when they =
are
not being used.

I have already checked with Radio Shack and Best Buy and they don't have
anything that fits the bill. If anyone knows of a source for something =
like
this I would appreciate hearing about it.

Thanks,
