For a kid's school project they were challenged to up-cycle a pair of wellington boots, and we came up with this:

Welly boot nest box |
No cameras this time around, a low tech project, but quick to do!
We also added some old wool to the eaves for optional nesting material - this was taken within a week, not for a nest in the boot, but for some other nesting site, and was re-filled today. The boot is tucked into a shed roof overhang. This nesting site would probably suit a robin who are partial to open-fronted nesting sites, and hopefully don't object to the previous owner's feet.
