What brand or type of camera are you using? I’ve been wanting to get one.
I used a Blink camera. You can find them on Amazon. They have an app, and they have night vision, motion detection, and they won’t disturb the birds. Make sure, if you get one, to turn off the LED indicator, also check this page : https://nestwatch.org/learn/all-about-birdhouses/installing-a-nest-box-camera/
Also, you can use a micro usb cable to power the camera.
