Here is another link, this one to National Geographic. I am just trying it now, but others I know who have been watching have said they've seen elephants, rhino and lions. And from what I've been told it's much "busier" than the pond at the other link.

It seems the best viewing times for either place is their sunup and sundown.

Great! Something else to occupy all my time!

 

[neetanddave]

Well, there go the zebras and the impalas.... after their morning drink.

 

[neetanddave]

An owl! And the froggie music!

This site is even better in some ways. There's almost always an animal of some sort around. I watched it for about a half an hour, and I saw (of course) Impalas, monkeys, an aardvark(!), and a croc(!!). Sometimes the camera's a bit far away, and the wind seems to blow and make it shake, but there are tons more animals!

I open a window with each of them, and flick between the two!

WOW! A hawk or falcon looking bird is in the pond!

I'm seeing a GORGEOUS either brown hawk or eagle, just chilling in the water. It's so funny watching him/her move it's head around, and open and close it's mouth like it's talking. What a pretty little thing.

I love both of these sites! when one isn't active, the other one is! At the watering hole there's nothing much going on. At Pete's Pond there's a male ostrich strutting around and baboons grooming each other.

 

[neetanddave]

I gotta get over my obsession with these webcams.... sigh....

 

[natalie_ca]

I have both sites open at the same time. I open the africam.com site into IE and the National Geographic one in Real Player.

Today I managed to see:

National Geographic:
- elephants including 3 young ones
- Ostriches
- 2 giraf (one was a baby)
- lots of blue guinea fowl
- 1 duck
- gazelle
- impalas
- Baboons including lots of young ones
- 1 large predator bird (maybe a hawk?)

Africam.com:
- gazelle
- 1 large predator bird (maybe a hawk?)
- Baboons walking in the grass
- 2 ducks
