Mr Owl brings a mouse

Fascinating video and audio. The video camera's nightshot option is a wonderful but under-used piece of tecnology which you have used to its full potential to get this excellent footage.

I did use "supernightshot" on the Sony Handycam outside the box, but inside the box there was an IR light and separate small camera -- a typical nestbox camera -- whose output went into the Sony Handycam via a cable. The supernightshot can just about stretch to 50-60 ft, but I had to do a lot of lightening on this clip.

What you see here is actually from different visits because I can't switch quickly enough between the two inputs to record a single visit like this!
