Darn, I missed 'em again. I started watching about 10 minutes ago and I hear a ton of birds but have only seen one duck.

There's something swimming around, but I don't know how to control the camera to zoom in.

How do you zoom and control the camera?

How do you zoom and control the camera?

you can't zoom, but you can enlarge the screen by selecting the white button below it (to the right).

sometimes the camera zooms in on something automatically (or someone is operating it occasionally, I don't know...)

The singing and drums were right out of a movie.

Anyone seen polar bear cam?

oh great, now I'm watching a giant polar bear sleep on the snow, while watching the water hole (nobody there). I'm going to have to invest in at least one more computer monitor. :roll:

It's a jackalope! We had those when I was in college in Texas! Very large population in Texas! I had a six pointer mounted...but someone stole it.

This is grayt. I leave the sound running while I am doing my work. So relaxing. Love hearing the birds chirping too. The other night I heard the bull frogs. :wub: I sent this to a fellow colleague who loves to travel and has been to Africa before. Just found out he is suffering from cancer. He e-mailed me that he just loves this link. Thanks Cil for posting it.

Oh my gosh, Mango, I hope your friend will be okay.
I too love the sounds.
The bullfrogs make Elwood start barking, though.
Actually, all of the audio makes both our animals sit up and take notice.

There's something stalking the zebras! I think its a hyena, but it's by itself. Hard to see, but they don;t seem terribly concerned with it.

I enjoy listening to it all day too, and I leave it up during the night sometimes. this is my favorite website. I check in with the panda and polar bears occasionally - those are great too.
