Wildlife photography is a surging interest across the globe, especially in the lockdown, which has fueled people’s love for nature. Wildlife observation helps you understand and mingle with nature and allows you to watch closely how the animals survive. But to be honest, wildlife shooting is never easy, and it takes effort and skills to capture the best of candid moments. Wild animals are nothing like those raised in captivity; some are indeed ferocious, aggressive creatures and the risk of getting injured is high. Now, Green Backyard has offered a solution to realize wildlife observation from a safer distance by using outdoor wildlife cameras.
Wildlife cameras can be used in both private gardens or public areas, only if you have gained permission from local authorities or property owners; extra care must be taken to ensure the privacy of both parties. They are incredible ways to bring wildlife closer to us and deepen our connection with nature and wild animals. Children can learn about local species and develop a stronger sense of responsibility for the environment. Lately, we have launched a new series of outdoor cameras for wildlife observation. We utilize the latest technology to provide the best features for filming wildlife habitats, feeders and nest boxes. Use our specialist outdoor wildlife cameras to watch different kinds of animals in your backyard or keep track of the game on a large property. We produce high-quality outdoor wildlife cameras in both wired and wireless designs, so you’re sure to find a model that meets your needs.
Here are the 4 best outdoor cameras for wildlife observation from Green Backyard!

Advantages:
1.Dual lighting (infrared & daytime LEDs): This multi-purpose camera features invisible night vision using infrared LEDs to secure round-the-clock recording without emitting those glaring white flashes or red glows that will scare the wildlife away. Similarly, its night vision can be simultaneously switched on as natural light fades out and be scheduled to operate in specific periods to save energy. Unlike the conventional daytime LED lamp, which is not necessarily waterproof and requires an additional power supply, we’ve built the daytime LEDs into the wildlife camera for better outdoor applications.Its daytime LEDs (diffusion filters are included to adjust the brightness) can be manually turned on/off via the app to secure better image quality, especially in low-light conditions.
2.WiFi connection: One of the biggest advantages of using a WiFi camera is its increased amount of flexibility. You can place the camera basically anywhere you’d like and relocate it in a different location without having to deal with the wires. The multi-purpose outdoor mini WiFi IP camera broadcasts video and audio signals wirelessly over the network without running a network cable back to your house. You can customize your camera settings through the app and watch live shows of different wildlife species on digital devices like smartphones or tablets from the comfort of your own home. Additionally, the installation is extremely easy and you can angle the camera in whatever direction you choose to. And since it’s a wireless camera, fewer tools and accessories are demanded, which helps you save money on the accessories and pay more for a decent camera.
#Product Two: Multi-purpose Outdoor TV Camera with HDMI Box

The multi-purpose outdoor TV camera gives you the possibility to watch garden wildlife on a larger screen (TV or HDMI monitors) from the comfort of your living room. NO complicated software configuration is involved.
2.Lower bandwidth requirement: The multi-purpose outdoor TV bird camera requires lower bandwidth because its video transmission is generally offline. The videos are transmitted to and recorded in a DVR through cable connections instead of the Internet, which doesn’t take much bandwidth. The DVR also only uses bandwidth when someone is viewing the video, rather than on a more regular basis. Furthermore, its wired connection also guarantees higher reliability for its immunity to bandwidth fluctuation and signal degradation. Issues like large file size and network congestion can be avoided to a greater extent.
#Product Three: Long Range Wireless Versatile IP Camera
The is a perfect solution for wildlife observation outside your backyard. It can be installed in bat houses, squirrel boxes, hedgehog boxes, owl boxes, beehives, butterfly barns, etc. And it’s especially suitable for wood duck observation. Shielded in a waterproof casing rated IP66, it can be mounted on poles 3 feet above the water or installed on land within 100 feet away from the water (≤800 meters from the stand-alone receiver) to capture pin-sharp images of those amphibians. The long-range wireless versatile IP camera employs a 2.5mm wide-angle CMOS lens with an adjustable focus to give you the best possible perspective (a viewing angle of 120°) while maintaining high-quality color images without any distortion or image degradation.

The metallic antenna also improves the network performance with enhanced WiFi signals. Motion detection with instant message alerts is available at every trigger event. Account sharing also makes it easier to share interesting live feeds with family and friends.
Advantages:
1.Long-distance transmission: An ordinary wireless camera can easily be compromised by bandwidth fluctuation and signal degradation as the distance increases. Some signals will go up in the air while others may bounce off the wall, vegetation or other obstructions, resulting in poor videos. Thanks to the Xtreme WiFi technology, this long-range versatile wireless IP camera shows excellent wall penetrating capability to foster smooth live streaming without severe attenuation. It supports wireless transmission of up to 800 meters between the camera (built-in transmitter) and the receiver (PoE-enabled) in the direct line of sight, which comes with an increased amount of flexibility and versatility on positioning.

2.Multiple power solutions: Additionally, this long-range wireless versatile IP camera gives you many options on power solutions for outdoor deployments. The camera itself can receive mains power (running a power cord from the nearest AC outlet) or work together with a motorcycle battery or a solar panel if there is no existing electrical infrastructure nearby. The receiver can be powered by the mains power through a DC12V waterproof power adapter or PoE (Power over Ethernet) using a PoE injector and an Ethernet for both power and network connection.
#Product Four: Wildlife Trail Camera
