Project Puffin was started by the Audubon Society in 1973 in an effort to restore puffins

to historic nesting islands in the Gulf of Maine. Although the Atlantic Puffin is not an endangered species (they are abundant in Newfoundland, Iceland, and Britain), they were nearly locally extinct in Maine. These days there are more than 700 nesting pairs on four Maine islands - a true conservation victory !

Puffins are often confused with penguins. They have similar colors, and both swim under water using their wings as fins, but they are not related and live at opposite polar ends of the world. Unlike penguins puffins have not lost their ability to fly. Puffins do not come to land outside of the breeding season, flying, swimming or riding the ocean surface throughout the year regardless of weather. Each puffin pair raises one chick in a burrow under big boulders, taking turns mbna america credit cardcard credit debt elimination programcard credit debt free helpapplication canada card credit in,credit card application canada,application canada card credit onlinefree prepaid credit cardbad card credit creditcard consolidation credit debt keywordairline mile visa credit card,airline miles credit card,airline mile credit card no feemobile credit card wireless servicecard consolidate credit debtinstant decision credit cardbalance card consolidat credit transferchase credit card,pay chase credit card online,card chase com creditwal mart credit card,card credit mart wal,card credit mart prepaid walprovidian bank credit cardbad card credit gas,bad card credit credit gas peoplestudent credit card applicationbank secured credit card,well fargo bank secured credit cardshell gas credit cardcard credit discover offer,discover credit card offerbad card creditamerican black card credit expressc139 motorola ringtones,c139 monophonic motorola ringtones,c139 keypress motorola ringtonessony music box ringtones,box music ringtones sonycaller download hotlink ringtoneschristian free music ringtonescingular go phone ringtonesfree motorola razr ringtones v3free funny ringtonesfree lg ringtones tracfoneringtones yahoo yodel,messenger ringtones yahoo,yahoo ringtonesmake your own ringtones,verizon make my own ringtones,make your own ringtones programfree ringtones software,free ware ringtones software,free ringtones creator softwaresony music box ringtonesfree motorola polyphonic ringtonesfree motorola ringtones,download free motorola ringtones v300,free motorola ringtones softwarecreate phone ringtones send,send ringtones to your phone,send ringtones to your verizon phonecell free phone ringtones wallpaper,cell phone ringtones and wallpaper,cell game phone ringtones wallpaperinfo nokia personal remember ringtones,info nokia personal remember ringtones tamil,info nokia personal remember ringtones verizonfree mobile game and ringtones,free mobile bollywood ringtones,free mobile ringtonesfree nokia tracfone ringtones,nokia ringtones,nokia 1100 ringtonesmotorola razr v3 ringtonesringtones for sprint phone,cell phone ringtones sprint,cell pcs phone ringtones sprintdownloadable ringtones for tracfone,tracfone ringtones,download info remember ringtones tracfonecheap mobile ringtones virginmusic real ringtones ringtonesinfo polyphonic remember ringtones,downloadable info polyphonic remember ringtones,info polyphonic remember ringtones sagemringtones for prepaid cell phone,cell phone prepaid ringtones,cell free phone prepaid ringtones sprintverizon wireless mp3 ringtones,prepay ringtones for verizon wireless,ringtones verizon wirelessfree nokia 1100 ringtonesкомпютри feeding their offspring fish.

This is a twin site project that follows 2 peregrine sites. Both falcon populations are located at a different stone quarry in Northern Ireland. These are the Kilrea Quarry and the Carrowdore Quarry. Both locations have their own live webcams, with video highlights, and an automatic recording of the last 24 hours.

Although these are not streaming cameras and there is no sound, the image refreshes every 2 seconds, which is pretty good ! Also the webcam setup allows each online viewer some controls like panning ( by clicking and dragging in the image) and zooming (right click - Zoom In).

Watch this short video highlight from the Carrowdore webcam.

Some additional cool features this peregrine webcam site offers are: 1. Ask The Experts Section, where you can ask your questions about peregrines and other raptors and read answers to past questions. 2. Did you know …? section, with interesting info about peregrines, other raptors and stone quarries. 3. Quarryman’s Diary - blog of the Project Manager for each of the 2 peregrine sites. 4. Data Trends and Analysis. 5. Quarry Timeline & Location.

The Osprey cam is located on the Blackwater NWR in Cambridge, Maryland. This camera is pointed at an osprey (fishhawk) nesting platform mounted on a tall pole about 20 ft above the ground. The image refreshes every 60 seconds. The camera is also equipped with infrared vision so images are also available at night except  for the hours between 11pm and 3am. During this 4 hour period images are not sent to the site to save bandwidth. Chances are viewers are not missing much action during this time as the adult osprey pair prefer roosting in the high branches of nearby trees.

Some of the additional features the site has are osprey facts page, the osprey weblog, osprey cam Q & A page, gallery of past cam images. There is the Blackwater Refuge Store, where you can buy birdhouse spy cams, Blackwater Osprey Ts, hats & caps, and osprey books. By doing so you will be suporting the refuge.

This is a low-tech live Internet camera that updates every 30 seconds. The camera is pointed at the nest of a Bald Eagle pair. The nest is located by the Potomac River in West Virginia at the National Conservation Training Center in Shepherdstown, WV.

The eagles built the nest in 2004 and since then have successfully raised eaglets for the past 3 years. This spring the eggs did not hatch due to cold weather. The pair is expected to try again very soon.

The site has several features like nest history/updates, fun eagle facts, and daily blog where you can see the eagle images other viewers captured in the camera.
