While at work, or at home doing chores,etc, do alot of you "listen" to the cam and "watch" when you hear something? The mic that is at the cam is pretty amazing, but I wonder how many creatures that the cameraman focuses on that are silent..How crazy would it be for the cameraman to give us some kind of spoken clue when he has something really quiet in his sights? I love that true sense of wilderness and wildlife that i feel while watching nkhoro, but i also think it would be cool to occassionally see or hear a little glimpse of the man, or men, or woman, that bring is so much joy!! curious what everyone thinks

that is so cool. from the 2 pictures from parrotlady it looks like they actually remotely control the camera. i'm so glad, cuz i always picture in my mind someone sitting on top of the tree freezing their buns off... one discrepency though, the picture from parrotlady shows the camera set up in the tree and the camera information shows that the camera is on top of a termite mound..

Hi Willywatch, I wonder if they have moved the cam .... that is the first time I have looked at the info that says it is on the termite mound. Now it looks as though we are looking at the pond from the opposite side. I would imagine a termite mound wouldn't be a great place to have the cam in such wet weather Puzzled:

Ingwe and Willywatch, the cam is located on a dead tree on top of an old termite mound - trees only grow on disused termite mounds of course!
