A Hidden World Inside a Nest Box
This camera looks directly into a wooden nest box built for a pair of Eurasian Scops Owls (Otus scops), one of Europe's smallest owl species, set in the countryside surrounding Rome, Italy.
Part of a National Conservation Project
The feed is operated by MCBI, a nationwide Italian program dedicated to studying and protecting native owl species through non-invasive nest monitoring and public outreach.
Small, Secretive, and Rarely Seen
Scops owls are cryptically patterned and famously elusive, making direct observation in the wild extremely difficult — this camera offers a continuous, unobtrusive window into their nesting behavior.
One of a Network of Sibling Nest Cams
This Scops Owl nest sits alongside a wider network of Barn Owl cameras the same project runs across Rome and Emilia-Romagna, together forming one of Italy's most complete live raptor-monitoring networks.
