Africam

Hi,

My name is GERDA.  I discovered Africam in 1999  & since then, there isn't a day that goes by without me visiting the waterholes and enjoying the sights and sounds on the cams.

I live in Belgium and work in a hotel as a receptionist. 
My interests are wildlife, birds, travelling, photography and sports.

I travelled a few times to Africa and fell in love with its wildlife. I find it fascinating to watch all the different animals roam, and interact with each other. Nature is the greatest teacher that exists

My favorite animal is the spotted hyaena and I will never forget the moment when I heard my first hyaena whooohoooping live at NK streaming cam. 
My cat, Zulu, was sleeping on my desk, when suddenly this hyaena started calling very loudly. Zulu got such a fright, he jumped up and ran off with his tail and hairs all raised. Now after a few years, he got used to the weird sounds coming out of my pc and  doesn't even lift his eyes anymore when suddenly a hyaena, baboon or a loud francolin starts calling on the cams while he is sleeping on my desk.

Talking about sounds... I absolutely love the sounds from the cams.
I started recording the sounds I heard and tried to ID them and started a sound database with mammal and bird sounds. I'm always very excited when I have a new sound to add to the database HERE

I love to meet people who share the same interest for wildlife and nature and through Africam I have made some good friends over the years.

I can truly say that Africam has changed my life.

Gerda
