1. I found a new steerable webcam on San Juan Island and got desticam.com to add it to their website. It’s set up so you can watch for orca whales from your PC. (Requires Java to work.) There is also a hydrophone set up near by so you can listen for them at the same time. The hydrophone really makes it clear how the crowds of boats can interfere with their feeding. If I were a whale I would be attacking boats just to shut them up!

    http://www.orcasound.net/ then click on “Watch live video near the OrcaSound hydrophone” for the webcam or “Listen to OrcaSound on San Juan Island” just above it. If you start the hydrophone first you can then go to the camera and do both at the same time. There is also a hydrophone at Lime Kiln Park.
