They're not lovebirds but still cool.

The barn owl link has live video from inside the box. :cool:

Cool link, Dave! I love their site. I use them as a resource often. Cornell is, IMHO, the ornithological authority in the U.S.

Dave, I love watching that site and have for a couple of years. Those in box cams are very inexpensive and several of my friends have installed them in their back yard bluebird boxes. One friend lives very close and I run over and "watch" her bluebird, incubating, often! TOO COOL! We've watcher her turn the eggs and we've also watched when Daddy blue decided it was too cold to spend the night outside and he came in, too! :D She kept pecking at him! :lol A few nights ago my friend called, frantic, at 10:00 to tell me something BIG was on top of the box. Probably an owl. She went out, the owl flew but mama blue was wide awake inside that box till after 2:00 a.m. I keep thinking I should add a nest cam but I'm afraid that I'd get nothing done....glued to the TV, watching my bluebirds! My lovies might get jealous! :lol

Here's another live streaming cam of an eagle pair with a couple of eggs. Really cool. http://www.infotecbusinesssystems.com/wildlife

I've been wanting to add live cams to some of my birdhouses in the backyard. But I love watching all these others set up, too.

Oh My gosh!.....I love the upclose face pics. They almost look like people or dolls even.
