Default How to disguise an externall CCTV camera

I'm planning to install an external CCTV camera which will be mounted inside my garage looking out through a hole in the wall of the garage at the back of my house and I need some way to disguise and protect it as it'll only be about five feet from the ground.

The camera will be pointing to one side at an angle of about 45 degrees.

So far I've thought of a bird nesting box - I wonder if anyone can think of anything else that might do the job better and wouldn't draw attention.

- Fake drainpipe
- Trellis
- Electrical junction box
- Security light (which can be bought with an integrated covert camera)
- Roofed bird table
- Plant basket

If you're going to fabricate an enclosure for the camera, it might be
worth designing it so that it's impossible for the camera to see any
part of your neighbours' properties.
