Tripods
For very precise placement and aiming, no mounting method will beat a camera tripod. A standard threaded tripod mount (¼”-20) is embedded into the bottom of the BirdCam Pro. This allows users to attach the BirdCam Pro to any tripod or any of thousands of 3rd-party camera mounting accessories – providing users with a world of creative opportunities through angle and height adjustment.
Wingscapes makes an optional mounting accessory for the BirdCam Pro:
Universal Camera Stake (MCA-13051)
Mounting Strap
The BirdCam Pro comes with a Mounting Strap to facilitate mounting. You will nd slots in the rear of the BirdCam Pro through which a strap can be threaded. Many users will tighten the BirdCam Pro to a tree, then wedge a stick or piece of bark between the BirdCam Pro and the tree to facilitate aiming.
Mounting Arm Accessories
This accessory will allow you to easily mount the BirdCam Pro to a common bird feeder pole, a post, a stake, a wall, or a tree. Numerous angle settings and 360° rotation make this mounting arm one of the most versatile setup options.
Your Wingscapes BirdCam Pro oers nearly limitless mounting opportunities, allowing you to capture images of wildlife in practically any situation.

BirdCam Pro User Guide
The key to taking great photos and videos is proper mounting and placement of the BirdCam Pro. We designed the BirdCam Pro so that it can be mounted many dierent ways. Take a moment to learn more about mounting your BirdCam Pro properly, and you will quickly see improvement in your images.
Basic Principles
1. Stability - Mount the BirdCam Pro securely
so that it does not move. It should never be hung from above or mounted to an object that moves in the wind. If the BirdCam Pro is moving, it will cause the motion sensor to trigger incorrectly.
2. Focus - Note that the BirdCam Pro lens can be focused manually. This is a snap. Use the included measuring tape to measure the distance between the BirdCam Pro and its target. Set the lens accordingly.
3. Lighting - As with all cameras, it is best to avoid aiming the BirdCam Pro at the source of light (for instance, the sun). Ideally during daytime, position the BirdCam Pro so it is facing its target, e.g. a bird feeder, but facing away from the sun.
On the Ground
Set up is simple, even on the ground. Just position your BirdCam Pro directly on the ground. If you’re concerned about it falling over, use the included Camera Strap to secure the BirdCam Pro to the base of a tree, a post, or other solid feature (a brick works great).
