Good morning everyone!We have big news to share with you about a change to our livestreaming camera operation.As many of you have noticed already the view from the camera is slightly different this year. I can now reveal the real reason for that.We have fitted a large plasma TV screen above the camera which has caused it to tilt down slightly.The technology is very new, and subject to your own computer settings, but we hope to offer the ospreys a selected view of some of you at home. The camera livestream will therefore work in both directions this year!We are very excited to bring you this groundbreaking feature which is a world first in wildlife watching.The system is set to stream random home views at ten minute intervals. Look out for the little light coming on next to your webcam.And smile.
