African wildlife cam
African watering hole camera
It took me forever to get to bed last night because I was afraid I'd miss a lion-on-giraffe attack.

Haha, that's pretty cool. If I'm just talking to people on the comp at night I'll keep it up. If anything cool happens I'll take a screen shot and post it

Please tell me someone else saw that water buffalo stampede a few hours ago.
And as for now, will this antelope/impala do something, PLEASE?!?!?

I'm half waiting for the guys in this video to roll through with guns blazing.

There's some sort of monkey/ape on right now, scratching his butt and...uh...other things.

Yeah I'm watching the monkeys. I'm not 100% sure why, but this is extraordinarily entertaining.

There's drumming/singing in the background now...I've been watching for 2 days with no sign of people, I wonder where they came from. Hopefully they show themselves.

Occasionally the camera is moved around, so maybe they will get a shot of the people.

I forwarded the link to my department and I think it's safe to say there ain't jack squat gettin' done around here for the rest of the afternoon.
I heard what sounded like a flute of some kind for about 2 minutes earlier, but aside from bugs that's all I've spotted so far. Listening to the sounds of nature though is oddly de-stressing.

I love nature and want to go to Africa more than any other place in the world, so this is pretty cool, thanks Busta.

That would be an extremely rare attack, unless it was a baby giraffe. Originally Posted by BustaJ2632

The Giraffe's hoof is like a plate of steel and they have very powerful legs, obviously. A kick from a giraffe to the head of an attacking animal is usually a fatal blow.

It's like watching paint dry but in a good way. I've been watching these ducks not move for a half an hour. It's peaceful. I'm going to leave it up for a while and hope the network bandwidth nazi's don't come a knockin.
