I'm not doing a post-mortem of the LG 2019 season.
Here's to a colourful, action-packed off-season - but the cam needs repositioning and cleaning. MIKE ??? !!! ;-D
03 September!
As KORKY may have retired in despair (I nearly did myself!), here is An Animal's Guide to Britain.

I think YouTube have changed something in the works and I'll have to wait for the download peeps to send out a new "extraction engine" getting around it, but that means I have to shut down the program :( Not all cams affected.
BIRDWATCHING HQ have sent out a new feeder cam, this one in California, set up by an ingenious student (PatagonianDuck) who has arranged it so that every time there's a donation of a dollar or more from watchers some food is dispensed. It would have been nice if the donation went to a charitable cause, however the cam cost $3-400 and then there's the bird food... You'd think the student could sell his software and pay all his tuition fees with it :)
One assumes that the local birdies wouldn't be allowed to starve due to lack of donations :o
This is not a cam I would watch much, as I don't care for the environment - but that's just personal taste.

Well I bit the bullet and did the shutdown but there's no new extraction engine :(

Thank you, IAN :)
I don't see a live stream on the Carnyx YouTube channel at the moment.

I'm supposed to be asleep but have now to find the Tech Test thread to warn anyone using GMail about mysteriously disappearing emails *eek*.
I have only just noticed your post, Ian. Sorry. I have also posted details on Osprey Chat. Apologies for the duplication. Patrick is a VERY long -term volunteer!
The 2011 blog containing an additional poem which I referred to, suggests it was his twentieth year of volunteering.

EDIT. oh dear. Looks like the former. How do we all keep in touch?
