The Käsmu seashore camera that was damaged by lightning in August is working again. We decided to forward the web camera view on the Looduskalender page until we get the grey seal monitoring camera working again. Aarne Vaik from the Käsmu Maritime Museum comments: "Responding to grumbles about the sea being there to be seen from any window in the museum 24 hours a day, we decided to set it up on our home page so that the envied "million dollar view“ can be the view of a million Estonians. I can recommend the look towards north in the evening and summer nights as Estonia’s most beautiful sky view. So we arranged the camera looking north. Even northern lights may be seen there. Watch carefully!"

Eesti Ornitoloogiaühing valis 2016. aasta linnuks rasvatihase, meie ühe tuntumatest ja levinumatest lindudest, kelle toimetamisi saab kõikjal aastaringselt jälgida. Rasvatihase aastal saavad tuttavamaks nii meie tihased – rasvatihane, sinitihane, musttihane, tutt-tihane, põhjatihane, salutihane, taigatihane, lasuurtihane, sabatihane, kukkurtihane - kui ka teised talvel toidumaja külastavad ja suvel aias pesitsevad linnud.
