Alutaguse Forest Webcam 2014

This webcamera is placed in the Alutaguse forest, Estonia’s largest forest area, covering virtually all of its north-eastern part, one of the most untouched and densely forested corners of the country. The fauna of Alutaguse resembles that of the taiga and is home to a large bear population, rare flying squirrels, golden eagles and white-tailed eagles, osprey, jack snipes, western capercaillie, black grouse, elks, wolves, lynxes, beavers, otters, foxes and raccoon dogs ...
There is an observation hut at the camera place from where people can watch the bears and other animals passing the place. The camera has night view.

Last year when the webcamera in Alutaguse started working, there was a lot of snow.

Image


In the previous years we have seen bears of all sizes, wild boars, raccoon dogs, foxes, most probably a wolf, a hunting ural owl, a golden eagle, bussards, various woodpeckers and other smaller birds

This year the camera starts a little later than last year, there is no more snow and the first signs of bears have been seen already a while back.
The angle of the view (or maybe the position of the camera) looks changed from previous years.

I'm not sure if the stream is stable and okay as it is, but as we have an "announcement" at a different place in forum already, here you go, the new bear season is open!

Yes, the camera position has been slightly changed. The article http://www.looduskalender.ee/en/node/19684 also says that at the moment the lights have not yet been installed. They consider an improved solution, so we can be curious how it will look.
