I saw this not too long ago posted at another forum. I have yet to see anything drinking out of that water hole lol. Is it contaminated?

You're right though in that it's pretty cool. Have you seen anything drinking there?

The concept is cool; I mean, who wouldn't want to see African animals in everyday life? (that may have sounded a little sarcastic, but seriously) I just think they should pick another watering hole!

It's 10:06 pm est and there is at least 5 zebra's at the hole.
First time I've seen anything. Smile
This is pretty cool.

Edit: My bad. They started to pan the camera around and it looks like a herd of zebra.

Re-edtited: Beaner, you must be getting on at the wrong time. I'm seeing geese, monkey's, birds, etc... at 10:45pm est. Looks like early morning there.

LOL. I guess it's all a matter of timing.
I found this same web cam on http://www.wavelit.com/index.asp?ch=Wildlife&sh=africam#
It doesn't need windows media player and the color looks better to me. Full screen mode is awesome.

I have been watching for a while and there has been a sound I could not identify but nothing on camera. Just now these 2 animals came into view butting heads. They were too far in the background to see what they are but they were making snorting noises, like pigs, weird. Razz

I see some mosquitoes on the lens. But nothing else right now. Pretty cool to me. I wonder how they are getting their internet connection. Satelite?

It's night time, so it's empty, but I've seen a few shooting stars! (and yes, I saw some bugs, but these were definitely not bugs, because of the straight flying patterns, and disappearing over the horizon).

Last time I checked it was still 2006, and I think the Cardinals got the lion's share.
