Every time I start the Pi, it'll take a few pictures, but soon stop working. This is according to the TOP application accessible through the terminal that, I think, acts like a Task Manager and shows all the running applications. pi-timolo shows up for about 15 minutes or so, then disappears from the list of active programs. Somethings amiss.
I tried reinstalling pi-timolo, but that didn't help.
I then tried updating the Raspian operating system using the instructions at raspberrypi.org, which essentially has me run two lines in the terminal.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
And that's pretty much it. After it finished doing the update and performing a reboot, pi-timolo was able run all night without crashing. Hooray!

However, the birdseed holder and Pi container are other issues. I've got another sandwich box that I plan on using with some scrap wood. I think the USB battery I'm using is also shot. So, I bought another one. I'll put everything together tomorrow and see if we can finally get this thing working...
