Hi,
The ad still shows on that page - I think that UStream shows a preroll the
first time you view.
It's worth noting that this project has been very difficult to get to this
stage. An immense amount of time and money has been spent, particularly by
volunteers, John Irvine, Geoff Hutchinson and Judy Harrington. We pay for the
upload bandwidth to get this onto the web and there is a constant investment of
time and hardware by the volunteers to document activities, archive HD video
and promote the system for conservation.
It would only be possible to bring this amazing spectacle to you, with the help
of the advertisers that support UStream. It's incredible that we can even do
this now - when just a couple of years ago, we were talking about literally
thousands of dollars a month to transmit this kind of content to the web.
I think the guys at BASNA have done a great job. Well done! I know I will log
in every day (as will my kids) and watch these chicks grow. This support for
BASNA will help ensure the project's success year on year. As for the ads -
when they are on TV, we just walk out and make a cuppa then come back when the
action starts!
Regards,
Simon.

Bill et al,
You can watch the WBSE cam , ad free, at
http://www.ustream.tv/channel/sea-eagle-cam . There are several other live
streams of bird subjects, including Molly the (Barn?) Owl sitting on eggs,
which I am watching as I type. She is standing up now and having a good stretch
and scratch and I can clearly see the eggs.
Cheers,
Carl Clifford

Nice one Simon.
I followed the link and got a loud commercial for some pain killer, which I was
able neither to skip nor mute, which was embarrassing as the soundtrack is of a
woman moaning, which didn't go down well here in my office environment. I
closed the window after about 30 seconds or so, being unable to bear any more.
I never got to the WBSE, which I assume would have started after the Neurofin
commercial.
I can probably tolerate banner ads in the corner of my screen, but this? No.
Just no.
Bill
