Best Smart Bird Feeder Camera: Netvue Birdfy Guide

As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. Details

The Netvue Birdfy is a smart bird feeder with a built-in camera. None of the products below is a Netvue Birdfy feeder. Five are other camera feeders you can compare it with, and one is a replacement Wi-Fi antenna that is listed as working with Netvue Birdfy feeders. It is not a feeder.

A camera feeder only makes sense if it can sit where the camera sees the perch and the seed, within Wi-Fi range, and where you can refill it. Check power, mounting and network details before anything else.

Quick answer

If you want a camera feeder like the Birdfy, the HEAPETS, Hibird, Kiwibit, Gyozol and FreeKoala are the full feeders here, and all are listed as solar powered. The Hibird is freestanding with a stand, the Kiwibit is wall mount, and the FreeKoala lists a 160 degree angle, a 5200mAh battery and IP66. The slinkdsco is not a feeder at all. It is an external Wi-Fi antenna for a feeder you already own. For more camera feeder ideas, see Best Bird Feeder Camera Black Friday and Best Sharper Image Video Camera Bird Feeder.

Buying checklist

• Decide whether you want a Netvue Birdfy. None of these is one, so look at the Netvue listing itself if that is your target.
• Check where the feeder will sit relative to your router, and whether it gets sun for solar power.
• Compare video: 2K for HEAPETS, 4K for Hibird, Kiwibit and FreeKoala. Gyozol does not state a resolution.
• Check the mount: freestanding for Hibird, wall mount for Kiwibit, not stated for the others.
• Look for a stated battery and waterproof rating. Only the FreeKoala gives 5200mAh and IP66.
• Check whether any app or subscription is needed. The listings do not say.
• For a stand-mounted setup, see Best Bird Feeder with Stand for Patio.
