Hummingbird webcam in Boundary County, Idaho

It's the hummingbird season here in Idaho and hummingbirds abound! Recently, I set up two hummingbird feeders by my office webcam in Idaho. In 3 days the hungry hummingbirds were busy sucking the sweet homemade syrup from the feeders and posing in front of the new hummingbird webcam!

I have not been able to identify the hummingbird species visiting the feeders but I think they may be Rufous Hummingbirds. If you see another hummingbird species please email me.

Right now the hummingbird have migrated away for the winter. They will back soon though! Hopefully the feeder will be busy again sometime in late May. Subscribe to the twitter feed below to get updated when they return.

Camera Instructions:

In order to see the camera you will need to have Java installed. If you do not see it on the left then Download Java for free.

Click the Start Control button to control the camera. If someone else is currently using it you will have a 20 second wait.

Once the "waiting" status disappears you may control the camera by zooming in and out, panning left and right and tilting up and down.

(You will receive a notice when there is a new camera or something unusually interesting to see!)
