OT: REALLY cool live cams

Might be boring for some,
but for some reason, I find it very cool to watch these live cams.

This one is one Pacific Time. (It’s 3:25 pm right now)

If you're patient,, you might see the just-hatched, teeny tiny baby getting fed by one of the HUGE parents.


(Unfortunately, you can’t enlarge the viewing screen)

(you have to click on one of the circles below the screen,, the best ones are “Nkorho Pan” and “Elephant Plains” )

This one is on 'African Time',, lol
Meaning,, when it's 9pm tonight in California, it will be 7am there tomorrow morning.

Daytime there is most active, but a lion pride visited very late just a few nights ago (night vision camera).

Fun to hear the roars etc

You have to be patient though – let it play while you do other things... then you might see elephants, giraffes,, etc

(Unfortunately, it’s not always on - in fact, it’s been off more than on lately, lol
but when it is on, and pointed right, it’s pretty freaking cool (live view of earth)

“Space Station Video: › Windows” )

I'm embarrassed to say for a while I did have a fixation with San Diego Zoo's Shamu-cam. :oops: :oops: :oops:

******** You might get lucky with this live cam pointed at a pool in Hawaii, lol - you can even zoom in!

(you have to wait your turn, but you can operate the camera)

(The views are great, but it always makes me envious)

lol,, i understand... it can be addicting - I use to watch the polar bears.

For me, though, these are even cooler, because they're wild!

you're welcome!

be patient!
Often animals come by every few minutes,

And sometimes there will be nothing for awhile,,, but then! wow!


So far, my favorite sighting was a mother and tiny baby elephant,
and the lions were cool,,, the sounds from both were almost as good as seeing them...

(both sightings were in the last several days, so they might show up again!)

lol,, enjoy!

hope you get lucky! :wink:

i love these live cams.. but i never can get them to work..

i like the NASA ones.. but why dont they zoom them in on the moon

so we can see the "buggy" , that would help prove we were there..

:lol:

Might as well make up a mock version of this and do a live cam from your basement,, that's what they'd say NASA did, anyway... :roll:


lol, could be pretty funny, too....
