I love being able to watch our feathered close-up.
I love our Birdbuddy. My issue with it is, even when I use a funnel, it's very messy to fill. The House Sparrows seems to really love it. Would like to know how to deter the House Sparrows and not make such a mess when trying to fill the feeder.

DO NOT BUY
I purchased this tonight from target. I’m going on our number three. I’m trying to get this thing hooked up. I should mention I do technology for a living not only does the camera not work or tell you when it’s charging you can’t get it hooked up to your phone piece of garbage I’m returning it tomorrow.

Smiling for the camera
My wife bought this for me for Christmas. I had been looking at them bought thought they were a bit pricey. Apparently she didn’t think so. I am still thrilled to have received a Bird Buddy. I like seeing little videos of the birds we have named as they enjoy their Bird Buddy. Sometimes they look directly into the camera like they know it’s there. Smiling for the camera

Love observing them eating
I have been watching the birds much more often. It’s fun to observe their behavior on a daily basis.

Fun to feed and watch birds
Allows you to feed birds and watch them up close as they eat. Solar charging is a good feature. Bird identification ( via AI) is great! Our feeder was popular instantly with the neighborhood birds.

Our daughter gave us our BirdBuddy for Christmas. We are really enjoying it. We told her the next one for us is the hummingbird feeder.

Mostly great but needs bigger hopper
Love to watch the variety of birds through the camera of my Bird Buddy! The perch extension allows the birds to stand further away from the camera to get a better view. The solar panel keeps it well charged. Clarity is excellent! The quantity of seed it can hold is very small. That is the biggest disappointment. I actually found an aftermarket hopper on Etsy that doubled the capacity, but my birds still empty it quickly!

Bluetooth pairing performs well and solar roof kee
The frequent visits by squirrels do not trigger camera until squirrel is too close to camera lense.

Birdy playhouse!
It’s so much fun watching the birds perch and chew on seeds. We’re getting to identify the species and their behaviors.

Dependable solar power
I got mine about a year ago. It is very dependable. I share the camera results with my children and grandchildren I didn’t realize I had that many Varieties of birds around. I also host a squirrel who has managed to learn how to get to it. Like the birds, He is also very well fed - Besides being photogenic.

Bird watching in style
Excellent choice. Photo and video quality are great and the solar panel keeps the camera charged. Just make sure to install and orient the roof and solar panel in the correct direction. Can also livestream the video feed at anytime.
