Default It's the manatee cam!

At least, I'm about 99% sure they are manatees... there's
no info on the site, just streaming video.

Was watching a feeding session this afternoon around 3:30.

At this point in time (9:30pm EDT) the lights are off,
so there's not much to see.

Click here
I would guess it's a cam in Fla somewhere, so I'd pick a time
after 6:00 am EDT for viewing.

It looks like it could be from the Aquarium in Baltimore. I remember them having a manatee exhibit that looked kinda like this. Yay manatees!

That's cool! But what is this site? Why doesn't it have any info on it? I feel like I'm tapping into some kind of security camera or something. haha

The software you need to run the cam is safe. I know you don't know me, but unless you *really* p'd me off, I would NEVER tell someone to run something on their computer I would not run on mine.

The cam find was made by typing inurl://view/index.shtml in google, and it was hit and miss until I stumbled upon the manatee cam. I ran across this method of finding unsecured webcams the other day and have been having a lot of fun finding interesting cams. The manatee one so far is the most interesting I have found. (that isn't lewd)

That is totally cool! When I first saw the title, I thought it would be a link to a camera in Rosie O'Donnell's bathroom though.

Try that page, there are tons of family-friendly cameras listed. I used to play around on that site all the time, but I've been really busy for quite some time, so I havent been on in a while.

omg! I just went to look at the cam and the manatee was sitting on the side with his head out of the water trying to get at some more lettuce with his flipper! Sooo cute =)

I really want to know where this is from...it really looks like the Baltimore aquarium...
