Animated bird feeder camera icon for Home Assistant

When a bird lands on the perch the camera ring around the lens glows blue and records, while the bird on the perch bobs its head toward the seed tray.

2 states: idle and bird detected. Part of the garden & outdoor icons in the Animara Full Pack.

States of the bird feeder camera icon

The card picks the state from your entity, so the icon always shows what the bird feeder camera is doing.

  • IdleResting state, shown when the device is off or idle.
  • Bird detected

Which Home Assistant entities fit

  • Any entity that is simply on or off, such as a switch or input_boolean: on shows bird detected, off shows idle. Entity states named like a state below (for example bird_detected) are used directly.
  • Works with any entity whose state you map: pick this icon in the card and map your entity's own state words to these states with the card's states: option.

How to use it in Home Assistant

  1. Install the Animara card: one link install, HACS as a custom repository, or copy animara-card.js to /config/www.
  2. Edit your dashboard, choose Add card, then Animara.
  3. Pick your entity. Choose Bird feeder camera in the Icon list if it is not detected automatically.
  4. Paste your Full Pack license key into the License key field once per dashboard.

Prefer YAML? This is all it takes:

type: custom:animara-card
entity: switch.bird_feeder_camera
icon: bird_feeder_camera

Mapping words yourself looks like this:

states:
  "on": bird_detected
