(<a href="http://www.metafilter.com/56511/LiveCam-of-African-watering-hole">previously</a>) It's up and running again for its third season till mid-December, the end of the dry season. Best viewing times are 4-8 PM EST and 12-4 AM EST. Lots of <a href="http://youtube.com/results?search_query=pete%27s+pond&search=Search">highlights</a> can be found at youtube, of course. NG also provides the <a href="http://magma.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/sealcam/">Seal Cam</a> from A&#0241;o Nuevo, California, <a href="http://magma.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/baldeaglecam/">Bald Eagle Cam</a> from Maine, the <a href="http://magma.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/kakaducam/">Kakadu Cam</a> from Australia and and the <a href="http://www9.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/polarbearcam/">Polar Bear Cam</a> from Canada. There are a lot of grizzly bears fishing right now on the <a href="http://magma.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/wildcamgrizzlies/">Bear Cam</a> from Alaska, but the <a href="http://magma.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/cranecam/index.html">Crane Cam</a> from Nebraska is down right now. To view these cams you have to sit through a short commercial at first, but after that it's all live wildlife goodness. There are also very <a href="http://forums.ngm.com/forums/default.aspx?GroupID=8">active forums</a> where people share their screencaps and vicarious adventures. tag:metafilter.com,2007:site.64386 Mon, 03 Sep 2007 12:30:20 -0800 livecam nationalgeographic pete's pond wateringhole wildcam wsg
