Nature Webcams

Sometimes it is soothing to watch a webcam instead of the news. Here's one with hummingbirds. A nice respite in midwinter, or anytime, as long as its daylight, Pacific Time.

And here's a webpage on aurora, including a live webcam. Alaska Time is one hour earlier than Pacific Time, and in the dead of winter, the sun sets around 2 PM. Auroras, in my past experience, peaked around 10 PM Alaska Time, which worked out perfectly for those 7-10 PM university classes.

Narya, nice!

Here's one of Monterrey Bay Aquarium webcams. They also have an otter cam, which I will share when I find it.

If there was anything that depressed him more than his own cynicism, it was that quite often it still wasn't as cynical as real life.

Mornings wouldn't suck so badly if they came later in the day.
