Pete's Pond cam discussion - Monday, September 24, 2007

Can someone tell me why the pond is sunshinie when it is only around 4AM in South Africa?  That is what is showing on my cam right now.  I know that the pond is in southcentral Africa & Nkoro is just northeast of Botswana,,but is there that much of a time change?  Please tell me.

Thanks

It is in a loop ( a pre-recorded day).  Something must be wrong with cam.  I coudln't see the animals earlier.  It was like the lights weren't working.

Pansy, they must be having some cam difficulties. This is a taped image that comes on when that happens. Notice the time to the right of the expiring time. When you see that, you know it's taped. Normally you just see the time connected slip by. Hope this helps

thanks Lynn & Pam. I knew it couldnt be daylight already.  So confusing.

OK....I know we're in a loop but I am enjoying watching the eland right now.  Anyone know why they rub their heads into the mud like that?  Have seen others do that.

PP is back up 3pm CAT...

Thanks for update. I had turned it off after I saw it was the dawn to dusk replay.

Beautiful ellie drinking now.  It has one broken tusk.

gorgeous view of some kind of birds (don't know my birds) over the water!

Glad to see the cam back up. I hope the lights are working tonight, guess we'll find out in a little while when it gets dark.

This female seems to be streaming from her temple glands. I read that such streaming often accompanies intense emotion. I wonder what's up with her.

Aaaand Pete's Pond is down again.

It's back up (for now anyway).  Looks pretty windy there.  Maybe they will get some rain soon.

Is it?  I still have the pre-recorded stuff.

It is doing fine for me...try refreshing, maybe that will help

Ahh, yes, NOW I see Fatty!  Although he looks a bit blurry.

Ellie party!

WHOA!  Was that a lion??

I think it was an ellie.

The skies were looking rather ominous during the Djuma PM drive. It would be wonderful if it were to rain overnight!

That wind sure is picking up.   

I would love to see a good rain.  I'm sure the plants, animals and people would too!

Ellies with babies at PP now.  I'm still wondering if this is live?  I have 8 31 07 at the bottom of my real player.

we have ellies with babies in the house, if this is not a recorded clip

nice visit. that 1 little one was trying to give mom some water... cute huh

It's live...cam op (Afke) said everything is working now.... 

thanks... good to hear it's live.
don't think I've seen this one before if it won't any way...lol snap..snap...snap

nice size breeding herd

Seems theres been about 4 different herds here.. this last one is large for sure... Afke is up late!.. some one is not happy a lot of trumpeting going on.
