Northern Cardinal
The red one everyone knows
Unlike many songbirds, female cardinals sing too, often from the nest.
Early access · Planned launch: spring 2027
Your backyard, live and labeled.
We're building a solar camera bird feeder that recognizes who stops by and sends the visit to your phone. Create a free account to hear first when it launches.

How it will work
Three steps, zero guesswork
The feeder is in development. This is how we're designing it to work at launch.
Fill it and hang it
Add seed, hang the feeder in your yard, and connect it to your home Wi-Fi with the app.
It spots each visitor
When a bird lands, the camera wakes up, records a short clip, and names the species.
Your phone gets the visit
You get an alert with the photo, clip and bird name, and every visit is saved to your yard's log.
Who's visiting
Built for the birds in your yard
We're training bird ID on North American species first. Here are a few regulars at US and Canadian feeders.
Northern Cardinal
Blue Jay
Can imitate the calls of hawks.
Black-capped Chickadee
Hides seeds to eat later.
Hummingbirds
A ruby-throated hummingbird beats its wings about 50 times a second.
American Goldfinch
One of the latest nesters in North America, often waiting until midsummer.
Dark-eyed Junco
Often called the "snowbird" because it shows up at feeders in winter.
Photos are wild birds from Unsplash. They were not taken with our feeder.

Where we are
The road to launch
-
Now
In development
We're designing the feeder and the app. Free accounts are open, and nothing is for sale yet.
-
Before launch
Price and final specs
Everyone with an account hears the price and final specs from us first, by email.
-
Spring 2027 (planned)
Launch day
Orders open, and every account gets the link to add the Backyard Regulars pack to Telegram.
Can I buy it now?
No. The feeder is still in development, and we don't take payments or pre-orders. A free account means you hear from us first when orders open.
When does it launch?
We're planning for spring 2027. We haven't set an exact date. When we do, everyone with an account gets an email.
How do I get the free sticker pack?
Create a free account before launch. On launch day we email you an "Add to Telegram" link, and the same link appears in your account. You don't need to buy anything. You'll need the Telegram app to use the stickers.
Why do I need an account and not just an email?
Your account is where your sticker pack link will appear, and where you can see that your launch alert is on. It only takes an email and a password.
How much will it cost?
We haven't set a price yet. We'll announce it to everyone with an account before orders open.
Will I need a subscription?
We're designing live view, bird ID, alerts and microSD storage to work without a subscription. If we offer an optional cloud plan, we'll publish its price before launch.
Where will it work?
We're starting with the US and Canada, because bird ID is being trained on North American species first.
