Hi All,
Continuing the search - Australia seems
to be short of good birdcams but there is an excellent New Zealand nestcam at the Omaru
Blue Penguin colony - it refreshes every 60 seconds.
My criteria for a "good" site include:
- Frequent refreshment of the picture.
- Some informative info
about the species' behaviour and ecology.
- Contributes to
awareness / understanding of bird habitat and conservation
generally
- Ethically
operated - Minimal commercial advertising.
- Not simply a captive zoo subject
- No gimmicks (not sure about the Blue Tits in
Norway in their fully furnished apartment! Can't imagine an Aussie parrot
falling for that sort of soft living . . .)
Anyway, we receive these treasures free, and it
must be challenging to maintain the cams in working order. And they
are much more interesting than the "big brother program" human equivalents on
TV.
