Yes, I saw them, and I loved the way one was cleaning the other one for a long time.

[pitc9]

The Hippo is still chillin' out in the water!
I think he's going to spend the night there!!

Hippo information - they have horny lips............who knew??
Helps them graze more efficiently.

[pitc9]

:D :D THE HIPPO IS SNORING!!! :D

It is SO funny!!

[gini]

His alarm clock must have gone off because he got out of the water at exactly 1:00 a.m.;)

[slick]

I saw the hippo......

Zebra alert right now.... :)

[slick]

Monkeys..........

.....and I think I see Mario :D

[gini]

Does anyone know anything about the watering hole itself? Is it spring fed or just a deep depression in the land that collects water? The water always looks so fresh - except when the hippo sat in it for hours!

[jazzcat]

There are two elephants drinking right now. They are kind of loud.

[Flatcoatluver]

I am screaming with excitment! I have waited so long to see them, there my favorite animals!

[Husky_mom]

first time EVER I see somthing............thanks for the heads up jazzcat

[jazzcat]

Well shoot, I had to go check on dinner and the elephants were gone when I came back. Now it looks and sounds like it is pouring rain.

[gini]

Yes, and now something is SNIFFING!!! It sounds pretty big!

[Flatcoatluver]

I would hate to live there, I would never get a full night's rest. :p

[chocolatepuppy]

Yay! Is that a hippo or a rhino? There were two, one on each side of the watering hole. :D

[slick]

Baby monkeys playing in the grass. What could be sweeter than that???

[pitc9]

Wahh... I can't see anything!
All I get is a green block! :(

Try this address - I am having difficulty as well. The regular address gives me no picture.

[gini]

Wildebeast - impala - zebra and monkeys - all on the screen at once this morning. The monkeys were a riot - the babies were just going nuts running around.

Someone on the forum mentioned that it sounded like someone was eating corn nuts all night. It does! It made me laugh.

[Donnaj4962]

ELEPHANT ALERT!

He/she is drinking at the water hole! Very cute!

[Donnaj4962]

Oh no.... walking away from the watering hole now!

Come back, come back!

[Freckles]

I saw my first giraffe today!

[king2005]

Theres this crazy thing flying super fast all over.. what the heck is it?
Its kinda creepy

[sparks19]

WOW I just saw an elephant for the first time. he was quite small but had tusks so I assume he was a young male that has just left the heard and is on his own.

He was on the close side of the pond and he was spraying water and getting a drink... it was night time and this is the first time I have seen anythign at night too.

So cool

[sparks19]

:eek: there is a Rhino and a baby on the cam right now... it is dark but they are at the water hole

[Freckles]

Herd of elephants right now.:)

[sparks19]

Herd of elephants right now.:)


WOW.... so cool.

We have a customer in the store right now that also watches this video feed a lot.... LOL she says it's very addicting and you never know what you will see.

I'm so glad Kfamr posted this link.... it has definately brought lots of entertainment to myself... and I sent it to my dad who in turn sent it to my brother and his family and we all watch it ALL the time.

[Freckles]

Elephant - right now!

[slick]

Elephant on now too!!!

[Alysser]

This is such a cool thing to watch, the elephant on now is so amazing. :)

[gemini9961]

Anyone still watching this? I watch it at work and I have my co-workers watching too. :)

It appears there is a herd of Wildebeest's roaming about.

[gini]

Yes, I watch when I can. But I found I was spending way too much time on it and had to stop. When a herd of elephants or magnificent giraffe drop by the watering hole - I just can't stop watching.

Have you joined the forum? It has a lot of interesting information and it also identifies many of the animals/birds.

[CathyBogart]

I hadn't seen this in awhile, glad I noticed it back on page 1. :)

[kt_luvs_kitties]

Just wanted to see if anyone still checks in on this? :D

[kt_luvs_kitties]

You have to go to www.africam.com now.... The other one doesnt work....

ZEBRAS and other large animals on now ;)

[Emeraldgreen]

Thank you so much kt luvs kitties for posting the new link because I had tried the first link in the first post a few hours ago and it wasn't working. After reading everyone's posts about how cool it was, I was so disappointed that I couldn't see it but then I tried the link you posted tonight and I'm watching Zebras right now! Thanks! :D

[pitc9]

OMG... I forgot all about this!!

:eek:

[gini]

I was spending so much time on it just watching the animals that I had to break the habit. :D

[Emeraldgreen]

There's something swimming in the water hole! Can't tell if it's a lion or a hyena. How exciting!!

p.s. Oh my gosh, as soon as I finished typing this post and pulled up the Africam screen to look at it again, it was gone. I've had it on for hours waiting to see something appear and whatever it was has already left. :(

[Emeraldgreen]

There's a hippo getting a drink!! :D

[ramanth]

Beat me to it! LOL!

I was working with my back to the computer and I heard a "SPOOSH!". First time ever seeing a hippo. :D

[beeniesmom]

I see him!

[ramanth]

It's weird to see a hippo only spend a short time in the water. I thought they preferred it.

[ramanth]

Hippos at the water hole! :D

[Emeraldgreen]

Darn it!!! I missed them this time. LOL :)
How many were there?
Last night 6 zebras came onto the scene and one was a baby. It was such a treat. :)

[ramanth]

4 best as I could tell. One got in the water and stayed there. Two larger ones and 1 smaller (a baby I think) stayed on dry land then eventually wandered off. The one in the water stayed there till daybreak then wandered off.

[Emeraldgreen]

Ramanth, after I read I read your post I quickly opened the Africam and it was still dark at the water hole. I said to my husband, that looks like something in the water, maybe it's a hippo left over from the group that you had seen. It was so hard to tell because it was dark and the big 'spot' was right in the reflection of the tree. My husband said "no, that's just part of the tree reflecting in the water, you're seeing things."
That lump stayed still for so long that I started to think my husband was right and then all of a sudden he lifted his head and started moving. I said "I told you it was a hippo!!" That guy must have been sleeping in the water! LOL
We watched him until the sun came up too. Saw him have some breakfast and then waddle off. What a cutie! :)

[kt_luvs_kitties]

Tons of animals on now :D

I think Antelopes, Zebras, and Buffalo? Probably 25-30 drinking :p

[Randi]

Wow, this is amazing! It's the first time I'm able to view Africam.

There are lots of antilopes running around, some are standing in a beam of shade. The first thing I saw was a zebra rolling around in the grass next to her little one, and a few more are walking around in the background. Also, you can hear lots of birds singing.

They're all went back in the shade and 5 zebra's came too, they have just now gone to the watering hole. Aww, they're all beautiful! :)

[chocolatepuppy]

Watching the zebras! :D

[ramanth]

3 Jackals on right now! :D

[Whisk_Luva]

3 Jackals on right now! :D

Only one now... been watching this one for a long time now.... such beautiful animals.... ;)

[Flatcoatluver]

Sorry to bump this up, but I have just started watching this again! And for the first time I see a lion on right now. :love: I also heard weird drums in the background. :confused:
