Africam

I saw the wildebeest...now I see the antelope...but I swear to god it just sounded like one of those birds was dying. :eek: :p

LOL! I know! I heard the bird making a racket, opened up the browser and saw the antelope. :D

Did you see a couple of the young male antelope play-fighting? It looks like they have gone a way for the night.

I got to see the antelope, it was SO cute! Now I see the wildebeests again.

There's a wildebeast right now!!

Here's a wildebeest:

Sorry about the terrible quality, I had to take them with my cellphone.

Has anyone ever seen anything at night - apart from "shooting stars" that are really fireflies? ;)

I haven't. But watching the moon move across the sky (via it's reflection in the pool) was neat.

I saw a wesel, but that was about it for at night. It was too bad the didn't zoom in on it so I could get a better look.

Going to have to bookmark that one - its incredible

There's wildlife at the watering hole!!!
Antelope or Impala's (some sort of hooved animal :o )

No antelope there now but there is a hummingbird, I think, moving up and down rapidly very close to the cam. I thought at first it was a spider but I can see the rapid movement of its wings.

I got a shock about midnight (Pacific time) when I decided to click on the site before going to bed. There was a very large giraffe gliding along near the trees and the cam was focused tightly on it. After seeing smaller animals and at more of a distance, it did make me jump. Then I saw some low movement in the trees at a distance and wondered if it was a lion. I knew that I wouldn't be able to watch something like that happen live. But it was a group of gazelles (I think - do we have any experts here who can tell us whether we are seeing antelope, impala or gazelles? I don't even know which live in S. Africa.) Anyway, it was a group of very young ?gazelles and they were racing after each other and play fighting. Unfortunatley, I think the cam operator decided it was time for a tea break because it suddenly switched back to the empty water hole and held still.

That's so cool Lizzie! Man I missed the action this morning. *pouts*

Most of the time, the "deer" like animals are Impala's - not gazelle's or antelope.

I turned the camera on a little after 12, dang! The most I've seen is birds and a mongoose so far. I downloaded a cute program to take pictures when I see some animals! :)

Now when I go to the site I have to watch a commercial first and then the Africam video won't come in, just audio. If I refresh I have to watch another commercial, that stinks.
