Amazing Fish Cam! - Something fishy is happening on the Net right now! See a live picture of a saltwater fish tank in Lou's office. Who is Lou? No one knows, but his fish tank is famous. Can you spot a moray eel or maybe a Humuhumunukunukuapua'a (humu-humu-nuku-nuku-apu-a'-a), which is the state fish of Hawaii?
Atomicweb: Steve's Ant Farm - Every time we visit this site showing an ant farm, the view reminds us of Auntie Em's farm in The Wizard of Oz . The cyclone's just struck, carrying Dorothy off, and everyone else is hiding in the root cellar. Yet, below the ground, the ants go on, industriously making molehills out of mountains. Check their activity, or lack of it, but keep an eye on the weather!
Cammunity.com - Cammunity.com broadcasts the most compelling live entertainment and information from 10,000 webcams and many special event webcasts from around the world. Need help setting up a webcam? The CamAssist area can help. Come venture around the world right from your computer. Visit exotic places, see live events, see all types of animals and explore.
Cayman Islands Turtle Farm - Welcome to the Cayman Turtle Farm Website. As well as our widely popular Webcams, you will find a wealth of educational and scientific information about the Turtle farm and it's inhabitants. We hope that you have the opportunity to visit us in the Cayman Islands, but until that time, we invite you to our home on the Web.
Cheyenne Mountain Zoo-Giraffe Cam - You've got to see the giraffes at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Sometimes they are in, sometimes they are out, but keep tuning in and you're bound to see a giraffe or two eventually. We did! They are normally visible from 10 A.M. to 4 P.M.(mountain time). This zoo is famous for successfully breeding giraffes in captivity.
Connectok.com Zoo Cam - This cam features various animals at the Oklahoma City Zoo.
DebZone: Home of the Wild BirdCam - View the BirdCam, see the photo archives and find out info on birding.
Discovery Online - Live Cams - The view of the world varies here. As we look at the selection of cams on the Web today, we see weddings in Las Vegas, a California beach, puppies, and naked mole-rats. Isn't the Internet fabulous?
Discovery Online -- Animal Cams: Naked Mole-Rat - The Discovery Channel offers a whole spectrum of web cams--from penguins in Montreal to puppies in Miami. This particular link features Naked Mole-Rats foraging about their habitat at the National Zoo in Washington, D.C. Every minute, a camera peers into a nest box and snaps a photo. You might see one of the 52 mole-rats gnawing on a treat, or looking back up at--you!
EarthKAM - Kids have taken over the space shuttle! Not the whole shuttle, just a special camera on several of the shuttle missions. This NASA project teams middle school and high school kids with mission specialists. Read about past projects and look out for new ones on upcoming missions.
Keiko Video Cam Images - View hundreds of pictures sent in during Keiko's stay in Newport. Here are the last of the best, and the archives have lots more. Remember, you can follow your favorite orca's progress at Keiko News Central.
Live Iguana Cam - Check out Dupree, the green iguana, as he lazes the day away. The best time to visit is between 9 A.M. and 6 P.M. (Pacific time), Monday through Friday. Otherwise, he's out partying, and you'll see a typical image, not a live one.
Nest-Cam - Watch a pair of beautiful Violet-green Swallows as they build their nest and care for their young.
Pikes Peak Cam - Lieutenant Zebulon Montgomery Pike discovered the mountain in 1806, but he never climbed it--seems the snow was too deep. This page shows a live image of Pikes Peak, elevation 14,110 feet, near Colorado Springs, Colorado. The tourist info here says the best viewing time is from sunrise to noon. They say the sunsets are magnificent, too, and if you want to see the most spectacular lightning storms in the world, view the mountain between 3 P.M. and 5 P.M. (mountain time) in July and August.
RailCams at RailServe - Interested in spotting a few real trains yourself? Visit this collection of train cams! For example, you might check trains on the Tehachapi Hill, "the busiest single tracked mainline in the world." It's one of the main north-south routes for rail traffic in California, and the RailCam is situated on a stretch featuring a 2.2 percent grade. That's nothing for a car, but it's a big deal for a train. The cam shows pictures of the last few trains spotted by the camera. Be sure to click on the Huh? button to find out more about what you can see in the photos.
Room 100, Buckman Elementary School - What are the kids doing in Room 100 of the Buckman Elementary School in Portland, Oregon? What are they looking at under their video-equipped microscope? During the school year, this spy cam will show you a recent view of the classroom, and maybe you'll get a picture of "the bee that just stung Ted" or something equally interesting. At other times, you'll see some saved images.
San Francisco CityCam - Ah, the City by the Bay, where every nightclub crooner always manages to leave his or her heart. Now you can visit San Francisco over the Net and see a new view every five minutes. Station KPIX has a camera atop the Fairmont Hotel on Nob Hill. Since the camera pans from the Golden Gate Bridge to the Bay Bridge, you may be able to catch a video of both bridges, plus views of downtown, the famous Coit Tower, Fisherman's Wharf, the Marina district, and other attractions. Better hold onto your heart, though! If you miss the sunset, don't worry: you can view a series of time-lapse photos and relive the whole thing.
Traffic to Russia at the Vaalimaa Border Crossing Point - There's something satisfying about watching traffic waiting to cross the Finnish border into Russia. Check the map to see where this particular crossing is located. What's in that truck? Hey, that lady in the car--she looks just like Carmen Sandiego! What stories can you make up about the people and vehicles you see? This picture is updated only twice an hour, so don't hang around--someone might ask to see your passport!
Using Solar Power to View Nesting Bald Eagles - View Bald Eagles in their nest from this Eagle Cam. The pair of bald eagles nesting on an island in the Connecticut River in Massachusetts continue caring for two chicks. The egg were laid in March and hatched in mid-April. Earlier this week the two chicks took flight for the first time and have left the nest. The adults and the chicks are always nearby, but they may be out of view of the camera.
Wild Birds Unlimited Bird FeederCam - If it's raining outside, or too dark to go birding, you're in luck. It may still be light enough to see the bird feeders in Indianapolis, Indiana! The official Wild Birds Unlimited FeederCam clearly shows you what's currently chowing down on sunflower seeds and suet. If there's nothing happening there right now--that's unusual--just check recent images to see what you missed. Look, there's a downy woodpecker! Hey, a house finch! Wow, a bald-headed guy filling up the feeder! What will your family see? Have fun!
