Got a friend who asked me to help him with a Bird/Nature Live Stream of his backyard/lake. I want to get 2-3 Cameras mounted in trees, or maybe the back of the garage. Not sure if I Wyze Cam's would be ok for this, maybe the new Aqara G5 or other?

To live Stream 2-3 Cameras to YouTube, do I need to use OBS, or does YouTube have built-in options for multi-cam setups?

If I can use Wifi Cameras, I'll put an Access Point on the back of house. If wired is required, I can run a POE switch in the garage and then trench to each location.
 
YT requires RTMP and some IP cams can provide it, no PC needed.
If only RTSP is available, OBS can re-encode to RTMP suitable for YT.
 
How far away from cam to birds?
Budget?
How many viewpoints?
 
wifi one not stable for your broadcasting. IPC-T54IR-AS 2.8mm can be great, but it's a POE version.
 
+1^^^ to Andy's suggestion.

Go with wired POE, not Wi-Fi, 4MP with a 1/1.8" sensor, 2.8mm as suggested above and found here.

FWIW good, reliable cameras are rarely "cheap".
