I Used A Budget Thermal Camera To Find Sleeping Birds at Night! (And Other Hidden Creatures)

I unbox, test, and review the Thermal Master DV2 Thermal Camera and use it to look for a variety of hidden animals, including sleeping birds, flying squirrels, and more! I also compare it to other thermal products such as the Teslong TTS260 and ZEISS DTI 4/35. Relative Prices (Teslong TTS260 ~$400, Thermal Master DV2 ~$500, SZEISS DTI 4/35 ~$2700). If you'd like to order the DV2 you can check it out here (We do earn a commission) and use code THERMBIRD10 for 10% off! https://thermalmaster.com/BADGERLANDB... https://lvnta.com/lv_7kxQeSqwMeIiy0g8Zv Teslong TTS260 (updated version with video mode and better resolution: https://amzn.to/4wQvco6 ZEISS DTI 4/35: This one is actually really hard to find now, as it's been discontinued, but here's a link to the ZEISS page on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4wcCaEh Teslong TTS260 Review:    • Is Thermal Technology for Birding a Game C...   Where Do Birds Go at Night Video:    • The TRUTH About Where Your Backyard Birds ...   You can support us on Ko-fi here! https://ko-fi.com/badgerlandbirding Join our email list! https://badgerlandbirding.eo.page/2dkyz Join our FREE communities Facebook:   / 15w41xwvzl   Discord:   / discord   Gear Links (As Amazon Associates or other affiliates we do earn from qualifying purchases) OM-SYTEM OM-1 Mark II and 150-600mm lens https://explore.omsystem.com/us/en/ca...
