I have seen a similar concept before. I know that to install it wasn't too technical. Just a matter of buying a flat board infra red camera and installing it, out of season. But if I could ask a question - the flatboard monitor has to be focussed for optimal viewing. How do you estimate the height difference between the bottom of the box and essentially where the top of the nest would end up, or does it not matter too much. A friend suggested it would be to add an extra inch by placing something an inch thick in the bottom of the box and then placing a penny, then you manually adjust the cameras lens til the Queens head is in focus. Is this correct?

Thanks
