Season Three of the PMCA NestCam is on it's way! Like most of the US we've experienced a colder than normal spring, so our arrivals have been later as a result. Once our martins have settled down and claimed their cavities we'll be able to start streaming. When the NestCam is up and running we'll announce it on our social media, including the forum, and post it on our homepage as well. We can't wait!

We have a pair getting established in the cam gourd. We have some more equipment and software to configure, and will be starting the stream once eggs begin being laid in a few weeks!

I really enjoyed the cam last year. Looking forward to this season. Better than any drama or comedy on TV. :)
