Happy New Year seals and seal fans!
so beautiful sight today

[ame]

hello Kuremari!
was that a blackbird in your picture or was it just another crow?

here's a short clip with no living soul in it, just the sun shining on the clouds above the opposite coast and on the ice barrier in front of our shore.

[Kuremari]

hi ame, it was my morning crow!

but now....aaah, beautiful!!

[ame]

the sun is shining brightly on the opposite coast. the colours are even more beautiful than a while ago.


there's a bonus: a seal's head pops out of the water.

[ame]

Kuremari, you've captured the same scenery as i!

isn't it beautiful! it's almost like the opposite shore were on fire...

[venegor]

Beauty!

[ame]

some blocks of ice drifted by so that they show how the waves move.... it's getting so late that the evening glow colours begin...


the bonus here: some crow calls (but none in sight)

[ame]

two seals were on the floating ice raft out there and then they jumped into water.


now they seem to be on the raft again. it's getting difficult to see, it's getting dark and they are so far there...

[Kuremari]

free public transport....

seal on drifting ice

[ame]

what a coincidence: i opened the camera just one more time and took a capture. then within less than 5 seconds it was disconnected!

good night!

I just finished watching the videos. Thank you Ame, Kuremari, & Venegor for your great pictures & videos of the day after Alice & I had to log off. What lovely light & reflections there were during the day! Ame, once again, you got the blue moment! And the seals were so amusing as they climbed onto & rode the ice floes. I got no real sense of the size of the ice chunks until I saw the seals on them! The ice is bigger than I thought. Here is hoping that there was enough light during the day that the cam will work again when dawn returns.

Tonight I am too sleepy from staying awake so long last night to watch the beautiful beach. So I shall rest rather than stay on the cams tonight. Good day / Goodnight, everyone! I hope the beach cam works & you can enjoy the snow, waves, seals, & maybe eagles, too! I am .

January 4th:
the camera is having a day off at the beach.
i didn't look yesterday but since there are no pictures from yeaterday i suppose the camera was resting yesterday, too. hopefully better luck tomorrow...

Good morning

my morning rhythm is confused,
the cam is still offline

[Bleggi]

Good morning!
I am also missing the cam open since days. Perhaps of the cold weather it is striking. Let us have patience....
Kindest regards from Bleggi

[ame]

January 6th: good morning!
... and the camera is still down....

Fleur: i think you are much better in normal day rhythm than i am. you "morning' was in the morning but look at me... - as my defense i can say that i've read three days' newspapers before i opend any cam this "morning".

good morning Bleggi!

[ame]

i went to check the weather at Vilsandi. here's the weather 6 minutes ago:


and this is the forecast:


there's narrow slice of Sun on tomorrows chart but so there are all the other possible symbols, too. so i don't count much on the chances of seeing the camera even tomorrow... ... maybe next Tuesday...

[Jo UK]

Just checking something - I am wondering if that is a "stock" image because I see the same group of animals and rocks each time I go there.



Hah! Interesting!
In spite of there being three hours and thirty minutes time difference between Ame's screen shot and mine, they are identical! Seal and bird in exactly the same position
Oh we,, the weather data is current, even if the image is an old one. Maybe that webcam is frozen too?

[Fleur]

@ Jo..
I check it often there, and see the same picture every time

[ame]

hey Jo!
it's an ancient picture which is a sort of a logo there. have a look at the Silma Nature Reserve weather: http://www.ilm.ee/silma/

who do we have there!?? :peek:
