Hats off to your ingenuity in setting the camera up in such a key location to monitor the activity of the black eagles at the nesting site.

What kind of solar panels are you using to power the camera? Are you using solar-roll?:

You mentioned there are only certain times permitted for you and Lance to access the cliff face. What times of year are you allowed to access the nesting sites?

Wow...very interesting. It

Wow...very interesting. It sure puts in perspective just how much work is put into these cams for the rest of the world to enjoy. Thanks for all you do. Very much appreciated!! By far, my most favorite site on the net.

Finally I can see it all.

Finally I can see it all. Thanks for this info with all the pictures. I have been watching this cam for so many years and now I have a better picture of how it looks like there.

The camera looks very rusty, but I suppose it to integrate in the background?

It's incredible what you did to give us this webcam, Campbell you be careful!

For those of you who have been watching Africam over the years you will be familiar with the Black Eagles of Roodekrans. We have often been asked questions relating to how we get the camera pictures from the nest onto the internet, and what are the physical and technical challenges we have had to face in order to achieve this.
