For a more budget-friendly option, the Birdkiss smart bird feeder currently retails for $150 at retailers like Amazon and Best Buy and is priced at $109 on the Birdkiss website. It includes the feeder with a perch, a wireless camera, a solar panel, and a 5dBi antenna for better Wi-Fi connectivity and range.
To deter squirrels, the feeder has voice, light, and alarm buttons so you can scare the squirrels or even tell them to “Go away!”
Like the other feeders, you can share photos and videos with family and friends, but with the Birdkiss feeder, you can also upload what you capture directly to your social media accounts to share with birdwatching groups.
Again, the AI function and more storage will cost you extra with this feeder, starting at $3 per month. However, those interested in more storage can get up to 128GB with a micro SD card.
