There is a webcam 24/7 on a Perigrine falcons nest on the cathedral tower in Derby UK
Have been watching for a month and the eggs have hatched ( 2 out of 4 so far )
Just a thought but you can see them on

Thanks for the link.
"Yes ! Waxbills are beautiful. I didn't know that they were to
be found wild here. They are an African species. There are several
types, ie red eared, orange cheeked and golden brested waxbills.
I have no idea if the other types are also to be found here ?
The are seedeaters, but during the breeding season they
become almost totally insectivorous and in captivity (aviculture) their
young cannot be successfully reared without access to copious amounts
of livefood. Breeders frequently set up their own mealworm and fruit
fly cultures to provide for their needs. They (the parents) can also be
released from an aviary, but only as long as they have young in the
nest will they return. This way they not only will benefit from additional
exercise, but they can also do their own foraging which reduces the
work load for the breeder.

Might be worth checking at a later date.
