Hummingbird from livecam

My brother sent me this Hummingbird nest live cam yesterday, and I screen capped for ages. I'm posting the best one and still not pressing my luck with massive upload.

Unfortunately, there's something wrong with the livecam site today for many users. I can't get it to work now, and the live forum had many other people saying they'd tried with different browsers and still couldn't get through. Some folks can see it today, so maybe you'll be lucky.

It's working fine for me, the quality of the image is amazing. Awwwww, I just saw the mum fly in and feed the chicks. :)

Isn't that fun! The babies are expected to leave the nest in a few days- I saw one flapping its wings in a blur that almost lifted it straight out of the nest.

Your icon is great. :^)

I'll have to keep an eye on it over the next few days.

The bird in my icon is a Little Wattlebird; a nectar feeder like the hummingbird but of course much larger. :)

It has a very elegant shape.

No luck at getting it work but this picture is enough for me to be happy. Beautiful and more than cute, thank you!

It was working when I tried it later, and I got to see the mum again. She BUZZES right near the camera, it's so cute!

Aww they are lovely. It worked fine for me once it had loaded and I clicked on the thing that looked like a circle.
They are gorgeously coloured.

I can't get over how *squished* they are and still can stay in the nest. ;^)
