I got a frozen view of the WA cam at White Rock, and black screens with "video stream stopped" at White Rock CU and Delta 2. Delta OWL's still down, but I'm pretty sure that's unrelated. However, I can't connect to Eagles4Kids, which is also streamed by WildEarth, and can't connect to the Bear Den Cam or Penquin Aviary at WE - so I think it's a WE problem.

I expect they know, but I'll send an email.

I'll note that Lafarge is still going strong - no clue why but it seems to be on a different server or something - not complaining, mind you - it's great that one cam is still up when the rest go down.

Just got a glimpse of the nest at Eagles4Kids, then got the "video stream stopped" message.

I just got Delta 2 back for a few seconds after several tries; it's frozen and buffering now. And I got White Rock CU, though it's also doing a lot of freezing and buffering (both nests empty). I was just clicking the square "stop" button in the lower right corner, then the triangular "play" button - and most of the time nothing happens - but I have had a peek at all three cams that way.

I did send the email - I still think it's likely that something is balky somewhere other than in BC - but don't know that for sure. White Rock and Delta are in the same general area (I think - I'm a bit fuzzy about my geography) - so I suppose there could be some issue with internet feeds there. But that doesn't explain the other cams that were freezing or black when I tried them from the WE site.

Looks as if the cams are still having issues this morning - hopefully it will be sorted out soon.

I'm at work but will try to check in when I get a break.

Good news - just got a reply from Peter at WildEarth:

There appears to be an issue on the load balancing at the Washington data
center. We're still working on a solution, but have created a temporary
redirect that should keep the streams running in the mean time.



I just checked and both White Rock cams are up - though it sure looks like a wild windy day! Not sure if you'll need to reload the page - I'd try that if you don't see them.

Will check Delta 2 on my next break.

Delta 2 is also up.

A friend on another forum had trouble viewing the Hancock cams after a recent Firefox update - the solution was to set a filter preference to allow the swf video. It's nothing I've run into (and I use Firefox) and nothing they'd seen before - but I'm guessing it may affect others so am mentioning it here.

(note to self - I should be adding some of these to the Helpful Hints thread - a good project for that mythical free time I always think I'll find one of these days)
