News about the "EagleCam"

It appears to have become so popular (5,000 simultaneous connections and 2 million hits per day) that it's now nearly impossible to access it.

The new URL is: http://www.infotecbusinesssystems.com/wildlife/

EagleCam

But it's not working for me (or quite a few other people, it seems). There is now a video commercial tacked onto the start of this feed. The commercial plays, but then the camera feed does not.

Hi Downtown!
I thought i would share a couple of my favorite eagle cams with you.

Catalina Island, 2 cams.
The WEST END nest is an eagle triad family, 2 females and a male, so there is a good chance of seeing 2 birds.The nest is perched on a seaside cliff, and refreshes in color often enough to see the ocean waves. The downside is its a solar-powered camera that goes up and down often. http://www.iws.org/nestcam.htm

the Ft St Vrain cam is in Colorado. We have eaglets here already!! its a slow refresh, but reliable.

I have reports of a large nest sighting that someone *thinks* is an eagles nest, and can be viewed from the road. I am a doubting Muse, but i will check it out and keep you posted!
