From absolutely nothing - and on our own - we’ve created a community wildlife reserve in the Scottish Borders in less than a year! Now we’ve started to win funding to develop something special. Follow our adventure. #nature #wildlife #communitywoodland #scotland #ScottishBorders

Can anyone recommend a set up for live streaming to YouTube or a web page from a camera on our bird hide? Wondering about trail camera/security camera over 4G? Or is there a better way? Any help appreciated. #trailcam #wildlifephotography #advice #nature #wildlife
