The africam is back. Yay!

[sugar magnolia]

Still no sound, but I see gnus and I think impalas in the background.

1. Well, I'm glad for the Lounge that it's back.

Although I secretly believe we were the ones who broke it.

2. Sugar Magnolia? The name is familiar...

:hug: either way. :)

[sugar magnolia]

3. Uh-oh

Familiar as in good familiar or bad familiar? :-)

:hi:

[BikeWriter]

5. Good familiar as in is that my Friend from Delphi?

:hi:

[sugar magnolia]

7. Ah, no

But I do know a sugr magnolia on a Delphi forum!

[BikeWriter]

9. Oh, I was thinking she spelled it as you do. Perhaps not.

[cwydro]

4. YAY!

I missed the cam this morning...

[grasswire]

6. I'm glad people are watching it!

I have turned several families on to this URL over the weekend. The kids are hoping to see something get eaten by something else.

8. One morning there was a snake eating something

and since I DON"T want to see that, I can't really tell you any more about it. If I'm watching and there is a lone prey animal there, I start telling it to go find its herd. :P

11. I would've liked to have seen that.

nature fascinates me.

I love Animal Planet, Discovery Channel, etc....

I have watched this cam a few times but all I ever see is just the animals roaming around.

13. What gave me away?

LOL!

:hi:

[bigwillq]

12. What is the exact link?

I googled it but it isn't what I saw the other day when I clicked on a link that was posted here on DU.

[sugar magnolia]

15. Oops, sorry!

Try this:
http://www.wavelit.com/index.asp?ch=Wildlife&sh=africam

Or you can go to africam.com and click on "Nkorho Stream" on the left side of the page. They also have cam-related forums there with lots of still photos posted.

14. Nothing is going on now.

It's says it's 5:35 a.m. in Africa. I guess all of the animals are sleeping. :(

[sugar magnolia]

17. I really miss the sound.

Even when there are no animals there I enjoy hearing the birds. I hope they get it fixed soon.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

16. Is the audio busted, or is it just my computer?

[bigwillq]

18. I can't tell ya.

We don't have audio access to the computers here at work.

Question: All I see is a big watering hole. The other day when I looked, I thought they were at a different spot and the camera would pan in and out.

Are you seeing the same thing?

[sugar magnolia]

19. No, it's not just you.

One of the amps went out and they've had to order a replacement part.

Can you tell I've become just a little bit addicted to the africam? LOL.

[bigwillq]

20. I love it.

The other day I saw so many animals but now there is nothing.
When is the best time of day to watch?

[sugar magnolia]

21. I'm usually able to check it in the morning and evening my time

I've seen the most animals around 7-10am Pacific time, which would be 5-8pm africam time. I often see some around this time of evening too, so 5-8am africam time.

There are people who operate the camera during the day and they'll pan around and zoom in and out on occasion. You can see a picture of the set-up in this post over there: http://www.africam.com/boma/viewtopic.php?t=1135

22. Thanks for the info.

I am about to leave work.
It was nice chatting with you! :hi:

Things are getting busy at the watering hole.
