From: "John Beamish" This is a live webcam from South Africa transmitting pictures from a waterhole in a private game preserve. The camera is actually manned 24x7 so whenever anything interesting appears, the operator will pan the camera and zoom in. At night, there is a slight artificial illumination and the camera broadcasts black and white. During the day it is, of course, in colour. They have a microphone that is highly directional and whenever you see an animal lapping you will invariably hear it lapping at the water. Remember that there is a time difference so checking in during the evening in North America catches the middle of the night over there. That's not a problem, actually. At night, V and I have seen herds (well, 10-12) zebra, a couple of elephants, some water buffalo (including some rutting), and quite a few other species. During their day, we've seen monkeys and a bunch of other creatures. I'm just watching the sunset right now. One thing you will note: the constant cacophony of animal and bird calls daytime and night. http://www.wavelit.com/popup/player.asp --- BBBS/NT v4.01 Flag-5* Origin: Barktopia BBS Site http://HarborWebs.com:8081 (1:379/45) SEEN-BY: 633/267 270 5030/786 @PATH: 379/45 1 633/267 |
