Streaming video from inside bird nest box

[John T]

I would like to stream live video on Ustream from inside a chickadee nest box that is mounted on the deck of my house. I have a Samsung laptop with Windows 7 and high speed Internet Service. What would be the best camera to use in this outdoor situation? Inside the box would be low light and would need close up to within about four to six inches. Any suggestions on the best way to do this?

The low light in the box will be a major problem. Professionals that do bird box vids usually remove one side of the box and replace it with glass. That way you get enough light to capture the babies being fed by the parents.
