This camera streams from the renowned Cornell Lab of Ornithology's Sapsucker Woods Pond in Ithaca, New York, providing a window into one of the most carefully monitored bird habitats in the world. The feed captures a woodland pond and feeding station visited by dozens of species throughout the day, from tiny chickadees and nuthatches to larger woodpeckers, blue jays, and raptors.
The feeding station is stocked with a variety of seeds and suet, attracting a rotating cast of songbirds. In the background, the pond hosts wood ducks, great blue herons, and occasionally visiting waterfowl. Squirrels and chipmunks provide comic relief as they attempt to raid the feeders, sometimes succeeding in spectacular fashion.
The seasonal changes are dramatic. Spring migration brings waves of warblers and other colorful neotropical migrants. Summer features nesting activity and fledgling birds learning to feed. Autumn sees flocks building before migration, and winter concentrates hardy species at the feeders against a backdrop of snow.
The Cornell Lab of Ornithology is the world's leading center for the study, appreciation, and conservation of birds. Sapsucker Woods, the lab's 220-acre sanctuary, has recorded over 230 bird species. The lab operates eBird, the world's largest citizen science database with over 1 billion bird observations. Cornell's Macaulay Library contains over 15 million audio, video, and photo recordings of wildlife. The lab's BirdCams program has been streaming since 2012 and reaches millions of viewers worldwide.
Early morning from 6 AM to 9 AM Eastern Time brings the highest volume and diversity of feeder visitors. Spring migration from late April through May provides the most species variety. Winter from December through February concentrates activity at feeders with species like cardinals, juncos, and woodpeckers. Dusk from 4 PM to 6 PM attracts a second wave of feeding activity.
