Spy on Nature

Near the Bob Campbell Geology Museum, on the grounds of the South Carolina Botanical Garden, is a bird house designed to attract bluebirds, although titmice, chickadees and other small-cavity nesting birds and mammals may also use it. Through the Birdcam, an infrared camera located at the top of the house, you can watch live footage of the birds visiting, nesting, tending eggs and raising chicks. This project was funded by Landscapes for Learning at Clemson University and was installed by BSA Troop 161 in April 2007.

Update: Late July 2009 - The nest is empty, and after reviewing past images, we found out why. A snake, which looks to be a patterned black snake or a corn snake, attacked the nest and ate the bluebird hatchling and egg.
