Check out this link to a live cam (sorry no naked college girls)

It's a watering hole in the wilds of africa. I've seen some zebra and such drinking. Don't look too long as it can be addicting when the animals start rolling in.

Hey, that's pretty interesting. I thought is was a vid clip, and not a live stream. I was expecting some stupid thing to pop out or something, till I actualy read the website text.

Pretty boring job, though. I wonder who manages the pan and zoom.

Jlo I am guessing you need to change your settings or your puter.

Very cool! I just saw a couple of shooting stars and the bird or whatever it isjust hanging out waiting to get somthing to eat I reckon.

Crap! Now I am addicted to watching this camera. I just saw a cool hyena (? spelling) drinking for the longest time. It is neat to get to see this watering hole live.

At first I thought I saw a shooting star, then another!



Then I realized that it was Bugs... :evil:

Edit:
Cool! Deer!!!

Every time I see it there's nothing.

You just have to watch it more WT. :lol: If you will devote like 8 hours out of the day to it I think you will see something. :lol: Well maybe 8 hours is a little much, but you would definately see something.

All I have to say is BRING ON THE LIONS. I saw those tasty deer there too Firebird. If I was a lion I would be right there ready to ambush. Why can't those lions just login and watch until they see something stop to drink and then pounce on them. :lol: The hyena was the coolest thing I have seen yet, but I still say BRING ON THE LIONS or at least an elephant or something.








EDIT: I just hit Knight status. I would like to thank all of those who had a hand in getting me to this point. I would especially like to thank the hyena without whom I would not be where I am today.

Shhh. The animals don't know I installed a Sun-Blocker.

Firebird it is only daytime there when it isn't dark. They are very tricky over there. :lol:

I am addicted to checking that camera. It is like a little burst of excitement every time something actually shows up on the screen. All I want to know thought is who are they paying to run that camera. That has got to be one bored individual.

I know isn't that weird. I mean I know there are totally different time zones and all, but to be watching the sunrise somewhere else while it is dark here kind of makes me feel like my day is longer. I just checked it here at home and I didn't even know there was live sound too. I had always watched somewhere where there wasn't any sound. It adds a whole new dimension to watching it.

Careful McD. It gets pretty addictive. I run that dang thing almost all the time now.

If you go right now at 7:46am central time there is a warthog and several waterbuffalo. There was a small stand off, but the waterbuffalo won. Pushy buffalo. :evil:

That bull has been chasing off anything that has gotten to close too.

It has certainly been interesting this morning. :D

From 5am to about 1pm Eastern seem to be when I see the most stuff. Although there has been some neat night stuff too.
